2020年1月11日，厦门大学王亚南经济研究院（WISE）、经济学院、邹至庄经济研究中心将邀请2011年诺贝尔经济学得主、纽约大学教授Thomas J. Sargent来访。在此期间，Sargent教授将与经济学科师生进行深入交流，点评青年教师的研究成果，分享研究经验，为厦门大学经济学科的发展提供指导意见。
厦门大学经济学科非常重视青年教师的培养工作，定期邀请国际学术界有重要影响力的专家来厦授课，通过小型研讨会的形式对中青年教师的论文进行点评，开展多方面、深入的学术交流。厦大经济学科曾邀请到包括诺贝尔经济学奖得主Thomas J.Sargent教授、James J. Heckman教授在内的多位世界顶尖经济学家等参加研讨，今年12月还邀请到世界著名计量经济学家、南加州大学Cheng Hsiao教授，麻省理工学院Whitney Newey教授，世界银行发展研究局原首席统计学家、厦门大学讲座教授陈少华，美国康奈尔大学中国经济研究院院长贾攀乐进行论文现场点评。厦大经济学科青年学者论坛已经成为学科内思想交流、思维碰撞、获取灵感的重要学术交流平台。
