PhD Symposium

Department of Accountancy and Finance, Otago Business School

23rd October 2025, 10:00~17:00, OBS2.20 (Boardroom)

The workshop aims to stimulate our research progress and communication. It is a perfect time for PhD students to know each other’s research interests. All PhD students (including MCom students) are required to attend the workshop. Basically, every presenter will be assigned approximately 6 minutes (5 minutes presentation plus 1 minute Q&A). The order of the presentations will be based on PhD seniority. Those who join our department earlier will present first.

The slides presented in the workshop should be standardized as follows.

Slide 1: cover page, i.e., title, supervisor(s), and your personal information;
Slide 2: what's your research question (one is enough as we only have 5 minutes to present);
Slide 3: why you choose this research question, i.e., the motivation from literature overview and financial data or own intuition;
Slide 4: how you do this topic, i.e., methodology and data;
Slide 5: preliminary/key results of your current research, i.e., one table or figure.
Slide 6: Thank You.
