  • Introduction

    The following coursework requirements must have been approved in order for the student to take the exam:

    • Coursework 1: Students have to write summaries of two empirical and two theoretical research articles following the guidelines of how to read and summarize research articles handed out by the teacher. Each summary should be between one and two pages. One part of the papers can be freely chosen by the student, while the other part will depend on which external guest researcher is presenting his/her work in the finance research seminar. These assignments satisfy several goals at once. Students should become able to read, understand, and summarize research papers, as well as have an opportunity to dig deeper into areas that they are interested in and might write their master theses in. In addition, by participating in the research seminar students get a glimpse into the research production process.  
    • Coursework 2: Students have to do three assignments related to the material taught in class in groups of up to five people. Each assignment has a maximum amount of 10 pages. The assignments comprise exercises and short case studies, small empirical analyses to deepen the understanding of the theories and apply them to real-world problems.

    All required coursework must be completed and approved by the given deadline in order for the student to take the exam. If one or more coursework requirements have not been approved, the student will be given one opportunity to submit an improved version by the given deadline.
