EFA Doctoral Tutorial 2023 - Call is closed
PhD students in the field of Finance are invited to submit their applications for the EFA Doctoral Tutorial to be held on August 16, 2023. This is a pre-conference event designed for doctoral students held immediately prior to the official start of the 50th EFA Annual Meeting in Amsterdam, The Netherlands (August 16, 2023) organised by Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
The one-day European Finance Association Doctoral Tutorial (EFA-DT) is an intensive and competitive session designed for PhD students in Finance who are nearing the end of their doctoral thesis and will soon be on the job market. Interested students apply in advance by submitting a single-authored paper and supporting documents (as per the relevant guidelines and deadlines posted) and eight PhD student papers are selected for presentation and discussion. The well-established EFA-DT is frequently held in parallel with the EFA Doctoral Workshop (EFA-DW) on the same day the EFA Annual Meeting officially starts, and celebrated with a networking welcome dinner.
The reputation of the EFA-DT as an event of excellence in its own right firmly establishes it among the 3 main pillars of EFA's success: | the EFA Annual Meeting | the Review of Finance (EFA's own journal) | the EFA Doctoral Tutorial |
Successful applicants receive a stipend of €1,000 to help cover EFA membership, registration to the Annual Meeting and travel costs.
