| Content | The primary purpose of this seminar is to guide you through the process of planning and completing your bachelor's thesis. Students in this seminar will work on topics that are related to corporate finance and sustainable investing. Topics related to broader climate finance issues can be acceptable. Successful theses will engage in quantitative analyses (e.g., regression analysis, time series models, panel data estimation, and event studies). This seminar is not for student who wants use qualitative methods (e.g., comparative case studies). Students will first identify relevant literatures and develop a research question by themselves. During the first meeting, we go over potential topics as well as an ideal thesis structure. The rest part of the seminar consists of student presentations of own works. Individual meeting is welcome as you work on your thesis by appointment. |
