Stefan Bauernschuster is a Full Professor of Public Economics at the University of Passau, Research Professor at the Ifo Institute Munich, CESifo Research Fellow, and IZA Research Fellow.
We apply microeconometric methods to answer policy relevant questions in the areas of labor, family, environmental and health economics. We work with administrative data, survey data, data from experiments, and newly digitized historical data.
We teach on the role of the state in a market economy, interventions in the event of market failures, and the effects of taxes. A further focus is on the empirical evaluation of political measures in the areas of population, education, health and the environment.
