The call for applications for the third edition of the Economic Fitness and Complexity Summer School is now open. As special event of the Complexity Economics WG, the EFC Summer School will be co-organised by the Enrico Fermi Research Centre – CREF (Rome), UNU-MERIT (Maastricht), and UNU-CRIS (Bruges), and will be held at the Enrico Fermi Research Centre in Rome from 9 to 13 June. Please submit your application by March 15 through the YSI platform.
The school is an extensive introduction to the economic complexity framework, with theoretical lessons and practical applications.
The first four days will focus on classes covering the following topics:
- Economic complexity measurement
- Relatedness measurement
- Network theory
- Machine learning
- Economic complexity applications in economics and policy
These sessions will be complemented by hands-on coding labs, where you will apply these concepts to real-world problems and collaborate on group projects.
The last day of the school will host worldwide renowned scholars invited to present their frontier Economic complexity research.
We are looking forward to meeting you in Rome this June!
