The Oxford Summer School on Economic Networks, hosted by Oxford Mathematics and the Institute of New Economic Thinking, aims to bring together graduate students from a range of disciplines (maths, statistics, economics, policy, geography, development, ..) to learn about the techniques, applications and impact of network theory in economics and development.
We look forward to welcoming a large number of world renowned experts in economic networks and complexity science. Confirmed speakers for the 2018 edition include Fernando Vega-Redondo, Mihaela van der Schaar, Rama Cont, Doyne Farmer, Pete Grindrod, Renaud Lambiotte, Elsa Arcaute and Taha Yasseri. Tutorials and lectures include social networks, games and learning, financial networks, economic complexity and urban systems.
Alongside a rigorous academic schedule, the summer school also includes a walking tour of the historic university and city centre, a punting trip on the river Cherwell and a dinner in one of Oxford's historic colleges.
The deadline for applications is March 15th - more information is available here. Please contact us at @email with any questions.
