Introduction

The Center for Research in Econometric Theory and Applications (CRETA) was established in March 2009. Funded by the National Taiwan University, CRETA cultivates an ideal environment for econometric research, facilitating open discussions amongst researchers, strengthening international exchanges, and enhancing our national competitive advantage in this area of expertise.

To raise the bar of analytical Econometrics in Taiwan, CRETA organizes regular seminars, lectures, workshops and international conferences. This not only serves to enhance the econometrics foundation and training of local top scholars, but also to promote econometric theory and its applications in other disciplines.

With equal emphasis placed on advancing the field of econometrics domestically and internationally, CRETA also encourages interdisciplinary and international collaboration by providing various forms of support towards the research and adoption of econometrics in professional applications.
