UNSW Macro Lunch
Purpose
These bi-weekly meetings serve (at least) three purposes. First, allow everyone at UNSW interested in macro (broadly defined) to come together, discuss ideas, and learn from each other.
Second, provide a platform for students (honors/masters/PhDs) to practice their presentation skills and get (early stage) feedback on their ideas. Third, allow faculty to discuss their own research.
Format
In order to make these meetings work, we've come up with the following set of rules:
- Presentations are at most 30mins (+10mins discussion afterwards)
- Email me if you want to present
- Student participation/presentations are encouraged
