Professorship in Empirical Economics and Applied Statistics

The professorship's team will of course continue to be available to you in the summer semester 2020 - even if only in digital form. For information on the course Statistics please register for the respective Stud.IP courses on lecture, exercise and tutorials.

Due to current developments in connection with the corona virus, the professorship can only be accessed electronically until further notice. The sale of scripts is therefore also temporarily suspended. Stay at home and stay healthy!

Dr. Tanja Ihden was appointed as Country Coordinator for Germany of the International Statistical Literacy Project.

The office hours of Prof. Dr. Martin Missong will only take place during the semester break by prior arrangement.

Our team took part in this year's black light dodgeball tournament of sports economics students. In a strong group of 7, we missed the entry into the knockout phase unfortunately by a very narrow margin as third in the group.

The EmpWiFo team congratulates Dr. Christina Uffmann: Her dissertation on the measurement of liquidity risks was awarded the "Special Prize of the Deutsche Bundesbank for Economic Theses 2019" at the University of Bremen!

The work area strengthens the cooperation with the University of Coventry: Together with Coventry University and UFS in Bloemfontein (South Africa), Prof. Missong is currently running a Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) - Course (B.A.) on "Data/Business Analytics".

On 23 January 2020, Prof. Missong will give a lecture on "Statistics and Law - Methodological and Didactic Challenges" at the Mathematics Department of the Christian-Albrechts-University Kiel.

At the Chair of Empirical Economic Research and Applied Statistics, positions as a tutor for the module Statistics are to be filled for the summer semester 2020.

The professorship wishes all students a Happy New Year! We would also like to remind you that registration for the upcoming exam phase is only possible until 10.01.
