Economics

The Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics brings together applied mathematicians, probabilists, statisticians, computer and data scientists, economists and industry practitioners to examine mathematical and computational methods in quantitative finance. Themes include algorithmic trading, agentic and generative AI, climate finance, digital assets, credit and cyber risk, financial data science, insurance mathematics, market microstructure, stochastic control, systemic risk and volatility modelling. Minisymposium proposals are due 17 November 2026, followed by contributed lecture, poster and minisymposium-presentation abstracts on 15 December 2026.

The Chair of Applied Macroeconomics and KOF Swiss Economic Institute invite applications for one or more doctoral positions using modern econometric methods and macroeconomic, firm-level, household, geospatial or international data. Research may examine globalisation and fiscal outcomes, multinational profit shifting and tax competition, international tax rules, political institutions and economic policy, or business cycles, forecasting, monetary policy, migration and corruption. Doctoral researchers will develop original papers, build and document datasets, present at seminars and conferences, join KOF research activities and complete the D-MTEC doctoral programme. The negotiable-start appointment is initially 18 months with possible extension through the normal doctorate; applications close 30 September 2026.

AHRC and DCMS seek research evaluating the long-term consequences of major UK cultural and sporting events. The funded team will conduct a live experimental evaluation of a major event and improve methods for measuring its lasting effects. Projects must run from 1 May 2027 to no later than 31 March 2030. Full economic costs can reach £1.32 million, with AHRC normally paying 80%. Applications opened on 22 September 2026 and close at 16:00 UK time on 1 December 2026.
