Background and activities
I joined NTNU in 2017 from Lancaster University (UK) where I was Professor of Economics. I received my PhD in Economics from the University of Queensland in 2008. My research areas broadly cover applied microeconomics and public policy. This includes research in labour, education, health and personnel economics.
I currently act as Editor in Chief at Education Economics, Associate Editor at the Journal of Economic Behavior and Organization and co-organise the annual International Workshop on Applied Economics of Education (IWAEE).
