To Prospective Postgraduate Students
I welcome students interested in econometric theory to pursue Ph.D. or M.Phil. I expect students to be well prepared in mathematics, statistics and economics. Feel free to email me with your CV and self introduction.
To Undergraduates
Every year I receive multiple requests that volunteer research assistantship.
- If you want to write original research papers, you should come up with your own ideas; I will be happy to discuss with you.
- Otherwise, from time to time there may be data collection, coding, and translation (from English to Chinese) tasks. I will acknowledge your contributions but these jobs will not produce papers with you as a coauthor.
