It was such a great experience to participate in the [OSE] Bootcamp. After participating in the program, I got a research assistant position simply by just showing the professor my Github and all of the cool Math/Econ/Computation we did in the [OSE] lab.

The OSE Lab summer boot camps are currently postponed due to COVID-19 restrictions. We are grateful for the generous support of the Charles Koch Foundation and University of Chicago from 2017 to 2019. OSE Lab will be searching for new funding for future boot camps. In the meantime, OSE Lab will continue to support its current research initiatives and student researchers. Thanks to all the students, instructors, and staff who have made the OSE Lab such a stimulating and collaborative network over the last three years. We look forward to continued future developments.
