Research at the Institute of Economic Policy focuses on quantitative analyses of economic policy issues. Current work examines questions related to the education system, the labour market, the higher education and science system, the housing market, the transformation of the economy towards climate neutrality and the economics of crime.
Research at the Institute of Economic Policy combines theoretical approaches with modern econometric methods using the best possible data. In addition to fundamental insights into the respective field of research (basic research), practical implications of the findings for the private sector, politics and the public are of particular importance in the selection of and work on research questions (applied research).
