| Kurzbeschreibung | This seminar provides master students at ETH with the challenging opportunity of working on a real risk case in close collaboration with a company. For Fall 2019 the Partner will be Credit Suisse and the topic of cases will focus on machine learning applications in finance. | ||||
| Lernziel | Students work in groups on a real risk-related case of a business relevant topic provided by experts from Risk Center partners. While gaining substantial insights into the risk modeling and management of the industry, students explore the case or problem on their own, working in teams, and develop possible solutions. The cases allow students to use logical problem solving skills with emphasis on evidence and application and involve the integration of scientific knowledge. Typically, the cases can be complex, cover ambiguities, and may be addressed in more than one way. During the seminar, students visit the partners’ headquarters, interact and conduct interviews with risk professionals. The final results will be presented at the partners' headquarters. | ||||
| Inhalt | Get a basic understanding of o Risk management and risk modelling o Machine learning tools and applications o How to communicate your results to risk professionals For that you work in a group of 4 students together with a Case Manager from the company. In addition you are coached by the Lecturers on specific aspects of machine learning as well as communication and presentation skills. | ||||
| Voraussetzungen / Besonderes | Please apply for this course via the official website (www.riskcenter.ethz.ch/education/lectures/risk-case-study-challenge-.html). Apply no later than September 13, 2019. The number of participants is limited to 16. | ||||

| 364-1025-00L | Advanced Microeconomics | 3 KP | 2G | A. Bommier | |
| Kurzbeschreibung | The objective of the course is to provide students with advanced knowledge in some areas of micro economic theory. The course will focus on 1) Individual behavior 2) Collective behavior 3) Choice under uncertainty 4) Intertemporal choice. | ||||
| Lernziel | The aim is to give to the students the opportunity to review the key results in rational individual behavior, collective models, choice under uncertainty, intertemporal choice, as well as to get some insights on more recent advances in those areas. The course is therefore designed for students who have some interest for research in economics. | ||||
| Inhalt | The following topics will be addressed; 1) Individual Behavior. Theory of the consumer (preferences, demand, duality, integrability). Theory of the firm. 2) Collective models. Cooperative and non cooperative models of household behavior. 2) Choice under uncertainty. The foundations of expected utility theory. Some insights on other approaches to choice under uncertainty. 3) Intertemporal choice. Dynamic model. Life cycle theory. | ||||
| Literatur | The course will be based on some chapters of the books "Advanced Microeconomic Theory" by Jehle and Reny (2011) and "Microeconomic Theory", by Mas-Colell, Whinston and Green (1995), as well as research articles for the most advanced parts. | ||||
