  • Participants will be assessed based on their seminar presentation (60%), homework assignments (20%), and oral contributions to the course (20%).

    • Seminar presentations will be held by groups of two. Each group will present one method of addressing the problem of causal inference (e.g., RDD). The presentation of 120 min to 150 min shall introduce and explain the respective method as well as applications. Presenters will suggest an article in which this method is applied. The group will bring a dataset with which participants will apply the respective method during the course. The lecturer will meet with each group beforehand to aid in the preparation.
    • Homework assignment. For some of the methods that we discuss in the course participants will do a homework assignment that consists of applying the method to a dataset, presenting the results, and providing an interpretation (in writing).
    • Oral contributions. It is expected that participants prepare the readings for each session and are able to reflect on them. In addition, they shall actively take part in the discussion of the seminar presentations.

    The course is pass/fail, not graded. In order to pass the course, participants must take part in all classes. In case of excused absence due to illness they need to hand in a written assignment about the content of the class they have missed.

  • This course is for researchers on the doctoral or post-doctoral levels who are beginners in economic laboratory experiments. It will enable you to

    • decide whether a laboratory experiment is appropriate to address some research question;
    • find research questions in your area of interest that a laboratory experiment can address;
    • develop an experimental design to address such a research question.

    In addition, the course will offer you hands-on training on how to bring experiments to the laboratory. It will cover common practical issues, such as which software to use, how to recruit participants, or how to conduct an experiment.

    The course will be most beneficial for you if you plan to run your own experiment soon. It will be particularly helpful for you if you consider using experimenTUM, TUM’s laboratory for experimental research in economics.

  • This course has three goals: (1) it will help doctoral candidates develop a better understanding of how managers make decisions; (2) it will provide them with conceptual tools to navigate their own professional careers; and (3) it will introduce them to a fascinating field of research in which much is left to be explored and discovered.

  • This course will build upon the earlier course of “Theoretical Foundations in Strategy.” In this class, we will go deeper into the theories we covered and give particular attention to empirical design issues and the development and testing of hypotheses. We will begin by examining the implications of firm heterogeneity for empirical research as well as the implications of “fit” (e.g., between organizations and their environments, between organizational forms and attributes of transactions, etc.) for empirical testing. We will also focus on firm survival and exit, and in later sessions cover modeling choices suitable for testing the theories we have covered in the first course. As part of our sessions, we will consider some award-winning strategy dissertations so you can identify what makes for a good dissertation. We will also have a workshop on developing your own research ideas based on what we are learning in the course.
