Department of Economics:
is one of the strongest research departments in the field of economics in Europe. Through research and teaching, we aim to contribute to addressing major societal challenges and to provide impulses for effective and evidence-based economic policy. Our focus is on the education of young economists from the bachelor's to the doctoral level.
Before joining the University of Bonn, Prof. Stefanie Huber worked as an Assistant Professor at the University of Amsterdam.
Congratulations! Axel Niemeyer and Luca Henkel graduated from Bonn Graduate School of Economics.
Hanna Schwank, Assistant Professor of Economic History at the Department of Economics in Bonn, receives the Reinhard Selten Award of the Verein für Socialpolitik. The prize is endowed with 3,000 euros. It is awarded to young researchers whose work is distinguished by its originality, the significance of the research question and a sound methodology. The award ceremony took place on 24 September during the annual meeting of the VfS in Regensburg.
A comparison of apartment price trends by year of construction in Germany’s largest cities reveals a notable pattern: While prices for new buildings have experienced a relatively modest decline from their peak, the value of existing properties has fallen by more than twice as much. This finding comes from a comprehensive data analysis conducted by the German Real Estate Index (Greix), a project of ECONtribute and the Kiel Institute. In cooperation with local real estate expert committees, transaction prices of German residential real estate are tracked using state-of-the-art scientific methods.
