Description

We are delighted to announce the second ‘Oxford Summer School in Economic Networks’ to be held in Oxford from June 25-29, 2018.

The school, hosted by the University of Oxford Mathematical Institute 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.

Last year we had over 80 students and an exceptionally renowned line-up of speakers including Prof Sanjeev Goyal, Prof Vasco Carvalho, Prof Mihaela van der Schaar, Prof Doyne Farmer and Prof Peter Grindrod. Many of these will be returning for the 2018 edition, with some new faces as well. 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 center, a punting trip on the river Cherwell (a quintessential Oxford experience), as well as a dinner in one of Oxford's historic colleges.

You can find out more and register online at https://www.maths.ox.ac.uk/events/summer-schools/economic-networks. Please contact us at economicnetworks@maths.ox.ac.uk with any queries or concerns.

We look forward to welcoming you to Oxford.

Best wishes,
