The Economics Department sponsors a weekly seminar series in which UNH faculty, visiting faculty and advanced graduate students present original research papers and receive feedback. Graduate students are key participants in the seminar, earning credits during their first three years in the program for attending presentations, reviewing papers and eventually presenting their own work.
Seminar is held every Friday from 2:10-3:30 pm in McConnell 312. All UNH faculty and students are welcome to attend. Papers are available on the door of McConnell 431 the week of the seminar.
