Description
The 2016 Summer School will cover Field Experiments in Environmental and Resource Economics. Over the past years, field experiments have flourished in environmental and resource economics. The 2016 Summer School aims to discuss the most relevant research about field experimentation, with direct relevance to environmental economics. Key relevant topics will be explored in depth including preferences, resources and valuation, cooperation, energy and water conservation, development and growth, as well as climate change. Classes will discuss the latest developments in literature, and students will have the chance to present their own work in front of the lass and the faculty.
Admission and Scholarship
PhD and postgraduate students. Admission is conditional on the presentation of each student's doctoral work; therefore PhD students who want to apply normally need to be advanced in their PhD to have produced at least one substantive chapter, but not necessarily finished with their thesis.
Application is restricted to 2016 EAERE members, both European and non-European citizens. Given the highly interactive activities planned, the number of participants is limited to 20. There is no participation fee. All applicants can apply for a scholarship.
