Theses

I am always happy to supervise Bachelor’s and Master’s theses in the areas of labor economics, economics of education, and economics of innovation. If you are interested in writing your thesis in one of these areas, please send me an e-mail so we can discuss potential topics and my availability.

Note that you need to be an economics major or show proof of having taken several economics courses beyond the compulsory modules to write a thesis under my supervision.

Topics of recent graduates include:

  • Green Innovation in the Automotive Industry (Master’s thesis)
  • The Impact of Technology on the Labor Market
  • Peer Effects in the Workplace
  • Leisure Value and Labor Supply
  • The Impact of Patents on Follow-On Innovation
