Seminars

The Institute is offering typically one semester each semester. The seminar matching is via the faculty-wide website. Further information will be announced via e-mails to seminar participants.

 

 

Seminar Asset Pricing - Bachelor (summer semesters)

The empirical "Seminar Asset Pricing - Bachelor" is for Bachelor students. Each student group of two / three students is assigned a specific topic that is changing from semester to semester. 

In the summer semester 24 we will cover the area "Crypto Currencies" with a particular focus on meme coins like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe, and many others. Each group (of two students) will be assigned a different coin. In your thesis, you will conduct a (light) empirical analysis and explain the history and the project/chain.

 

Seminar Digital Finance (winter semesters)
The seminar in Digital Finance is for Master students (including Master of Finance students). Each student group of two / three students is assigned one academic paper. Students are required to read related academic papers. The seminar thesis and its corresponding presentation need to summarize the paper and it should also discuss the paper's strengths and weaknesses. 

In the winter semester 2023/24 we will cover Non-fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are unique digital assets that represent ownership or proof of authenticity of a specific item or piece of content, such as artwork, collectibles, or virtual real estate, on a blockchain. Unlike cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum, NFTs cannot be exchanged on a one-to-one basis due to their uniqueness. NFTs have gained popularity in the art world and beyond, enabling creators to sell and monetize their digital creations while providing verifiable proof of ownership and scarcity.

All information is available via Moodle.
