Econometrics (Prof. Dr. Cygan-Rehm)

Our research focuses mainly on the fields of empirical labor, education, health, and population economics. A special focus is on the econometric evaluation of various policy measures.

Investigating the role of diverse policies in the emergence and/or balancing of early-childhood inequalities and their potential long-term consequences in adulthood.
