Since 2005, the International Symposium on Econometric Theory and Applications (SETA) has been a premier international forum bringing world-renown academics, researchers and professionals for presentation of new findings and discussions of future development in the field of econometrics. The Symposium aims to encourage econometric research, both theoretical and applied, and foster the exchange of ideas and communication among attendees.
Chung-Ming Kuan led the efforts to establish the SETA, serving as the inaugural organizer until 2019. Since then, Yoosoon Chang has served as the organizer, and in this role has brought stronger emphasis on applied/empirical research, broadly defined.
