Assistant: Christian Gschwendt (christian.gschwendt@unibe.ch)
**Number of students: max. 16 - please register in KSL (open from 15.06.-08.09.2023)
The seminar gives students a platform to discuss recent academic contributions in the field of economics
of education (see topics below). The learning content is based on a range of high-quality
research papers published in leading journals in the field of economics.
Students are expected to investigate one of the research topics based on their own reading of one
of the research papers and present the acquired knowledge to the other seminar participants. This
includes individual presentations of the research work as well as a short group presentation of the
jointly gathered knowledge on the topic. In addition, students are expected to write a seminar paper.
As a seminar paper, each student writes an essay of about 10-12 pages containing either (a) a research
proposal in one of the seminar topics or (b) a thorough critical evaluation of the research paper.
