איך מחקר נולד? כמו שיר?
How are research projects born? Like a song? The seminar explores this question by focusing on the way behavioral economists, and their ex-students, started their favorite research projects. In most weeks, different faculty members will present their favorite and current research projects. The students will be challenged to propose ideas for research that extends these projects. We will discuss the advantages of the different approaches, and the alternative ways to start new research projects. The course will help the participants consider alternative ideas for their thesis, and compare alternative career paths.
Weekly task: In each of the first nine weeks, the students will be asked to propose an idea (in no more than 120 words) for research projects that extend the current research of the week’s guest lecturers. These tasks will be performed in randomly selected (by the TA) pairs.
Final presentation and paper: Extension of one of the “weekly proposed ideas” to a full (up to 7 pages) research proposal. These proposed projects will be presented in the last four classes.
