Whether you're working on a thesis, research project, or assignment, finding the right financial data can be challenging. For less complex or less time-consuming questions, we offer a walk-in consultation hour. The idea is that we can point you in the right direction within a maximum of 10 minutes. From 1:00 PM to 2:00 PM on March 12, March 24, April 8, April 23, and May 12 in Polak Y01-15. For more complicated or time consuming uestions we offer individual support sessions of 1 hour to help you collect the data.
Location
All sessions take place in Room Y01-15, Polak Building.
If you’re unable to attend, please cancel at least 24 hours in advance and provide a brief reason. This allows us to offer support to other students and researchers who may be waiting for assistance.
