We are pleased to announce the next event in the sequence of Econometric Society summer schools in Dynamic Structural Econometrics.

The DSE summer school equips early and mid-stage PhD students with tools for formulating, solving, and estimating dynamic structural econometric models, with a focus on applications in corporate finance, personal finance, and banking.

The program focuses on core tools for solving dynamic decision problems and estimating structural models, with an emphasis on application to a wide variety of topics in these areas.

The course combines lectures with hands-on computational sessions and demonstrates how dynamic structural models can be used for counterfactual and policy analysis in finance and banking settings.
