Maastricht, The Netherlands
In 2019, our EPICENTER will organize the sixth EPICENTER Spring Course in Epistemic Game Theory Maastricht University, July 1 ? July 15, 2019 Registration: You can register online by clicking here<https://epicentermaastricht.wufoo.com/forms/z19mowpt0bwmo3w/>. The registration deadline is June 1, 2019. You can also go to our course website: http://www.epicenter.name/springcourse/ Registration fee: The registration fee for this course is 80 euros. To see how you can pay this amount, please visit our course website: http://www.epicenter.name/springcourse/ Your registration is not complete without paying the fee. Scholarships: We provide 15 scholarships of 400 euros each, so that students can pay (a large part of) their stay in Maastricht with this scholarship. You can apply for this scholarship on the online registration form. You will only be eligible for a scholarship if you are a master- or PhD student from outside Maastricht University, rent a room during the whole course, meet the attendance requirements and successfully participate in the exam. The precise criteria can be found on our website: http://www.epicenter.name/springcourse/ The earlier you register, the higher the chance to obtain a scholarship. Credits and certificate: At the end of the course there will be an exam, which is optional. So, you are free to participate without doing the exam. Everybody who attends at least 20 out of 26 sessions will earn an official certificate from the EPICENTER and our university. The certificate states that the workload of this course amounts to 200 hours, which corresponds to 6.5 ECTS. If you pass the exam, by scoring at least a 5.5 out of 10, you get a special certificate saying that, next to successfully following the course, you also successfully participated in the exam. This should usually be sufficient to get 6.5 ECTS for this course at your home university. About the course: Epistemic game theory is a new, fresh approach to game theory where the reasoning of people is at center stage. More precisely, it investigates how people like you and me reason in a game theoretic situation before they make a decision. Not only do we reason about the possible choices of others, but also about the reasoning of others. This type of reasoning will be our main theme of interest. The course offers a deep introduction into the beautiful world of epistemic game theory, and is open to advanced bachelor students, master students, PhD students and researchers all over the world. For more information about the course, together with a full program of the course, please visit our course website: http://www.epicenter.name/springcourse/ Previous editions: Between 2014 and 2018 we also gave the EPICENTER Spring Course in Epistemic Game Theory on an annual basis. All editions were a big success, with highly motivated students from all across Europe and even outside (see our course website http://www.epicenter.name/previous-courses/ for some nice pictures from previous years, the names of the participants and the universities they came from). We hope the 2019 edition will be at least as good. Forward: Please forward this message to all people whom you think might be interested. Questions?
