Economics seminars and workshops
We run a regular programme of seminars for staff, students and the wider public.
Our seminars usually take place on Wednesdays between 16:00 and 17:30. In addition, there are also workshops, which take place on Fridays between 13:00 and 14:30.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, all seminars and workshops will be held online until further notice.
Please contact the economic seminar organiser, Dr Pipat Wongsa-art, if you are interested in attending these events or require additional information.
