Presentation Types and Formats
The conference program will include two types of sessions, i.e., paper presentation sessions, and whiteboard presentation sessions. In paper presentation sessions, students are asked to give a succinct presentation of their job market paper or dissertation (10 mins) followed by feedback from a designated faculty discussant and the assembled community of NMSRC scholars.
In whiteboard presentation sessions, students are asked to give a succinct presentation that is related to their research interest (8 mins) followed by feedback from the assembled community of NMSRC scholars. Students can discuss your early-stage work in progress that is not a completed paper, research gaps, data sets looking for theory, theory looking for dataset, or an overview of an area leveraging a couple of key published papers by other people, etc. The idea is for students to share whatever it is that they are working on and would like to get early stage feedback on.
