Research Seminar

The research seminar is one of the main forms of research work within the framework of the corresponding master's program "Finance".
The research seminar of the Master's program "Finance" at the Higher School of Economics - Nizhny Novgorod is aimed at developing students' research skills and preparing a master's thesis. The seminar includes a discussion of current financial issues with teachers, practitioners and researchers, as well as project seminars, interim results and the defence of term papers.

The main purpose of the scientific seminar is to develop students' research skills and abilities that are not necessary for the preparation of a master's thesis.

In the first year, classes begin with studying general issues of organizing and conducting scientific research, and the specifics of writing academic texts. In the future, project seminars are held, at which students present a work program on their own course work for discussion.

The main objectives of the research seminar are: formation of an idea about the most relevant research problems in the field of finance; training in the use of theoretical knowledge in conducting research and comprehensive analysis of financial problems; development of skills in preparing analytical reviews, scientific articles and reports; development of skills in presentation and discussion of research; scientific and methodological support for the preparation of a master's thesis by students.
