[Vili Lehdonvirta]

Hi All,

My department is increasing its MSc student intake for the next year. Please do let any undergraduates know who might be interested. The application deadline is next Friday already. I personally look forward to supervising students interested in online markets, virtual currencies, and digital work. The programme caters to many other interests as well (see below).
