DART Accounting Workshop

Continuing the well-established international collaboration of prior years, researchers from the University of Mannheim (Prof. Simons) participated in the DART Accounting Workshop (formerly DART Mini Graduate Workshop) held on 14 and 15 January in Graz. During the two-day workshop, junior researchers from the University of Graz, University of Vienna and University of Mannheim had the opportunity to present their research projects and benefit from the feedback of assigned discussants and the fruitful discussion among participants. The presentations included analytical studies in the fields of accounting, auditing, taxation as well as industrial organization. CAR’s Prof. Niemann noted the high quality of all the contributions and expressed appreciation for their broad heterogeneity. Because the workshop was perceived as a success by all participants, the faculty announced its intention to repeat this event in subsequent years.
