The European Accounting Association Virtual Accounting Research Seminar (VARS) aims to facilitate the continued exchange and discussion of accounting research findings in Europe and around the world. The series is free and open to all. Recordings of previous seminars will be made available to EAA members on the Accounting Resources Centre (ARC) Repository at presenters’ discretion.
Seminars take place monthly at 16:15 – 17.45 CET on Zoom – see full list of dates and program below.
We offer the possibility to PhD students and early career faculty members to register for a 30-minute meeting slot with the guest speaker to discuss your own research and theirs. Registration will open one week prior to the seminar and slots will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
Individual meetings take place in the morning of the day 12 December at 9:00 am CET.
