Course Description and List of Topics (Summer Semester 2023):

A second set relates to Behavioral Public Economics and Political Economy (Chair of Prof. Necker). The third set relates to Public Economics and Spatial Economics (Chair of Prof. Wrede).

More details, including references and the research questions covered in the respective literature, can be found at: Seminar Public Economics 1 Course Description SS 2023.

The seminar has two consecutive parts:

In the first part, students write a thesis (15 pages) under the guidance of their advisor. In an introductory session, students learn about the principles of scientific work and the scope of analysis that is expected. The thesis elaborates on the literature (see the list of topics for the main article(s) to be covered). Students are expected to search for additional literature and then work independently on their topic. Advisors provide close guidance during this process. The deadline to hand in the thesis is June 09, 2023.

The second part consists of a two-day seminar (June 29-30, 2023) of students’ presentations. Before preparing their presentations, supervisors will provide students with detailed feedback on their thesis. During the seminar students present their thesis. Each presenter has 25 minutes for the presentation, followed by 25 minutes of discussion.

Organizational details and grading:

  • The seminar is jointly organized by the chairs of Prof. Büttner, Prof. Necker, and Prof. Wrede.
  • Students who want to participate in Summer Semester 2023 should express their interest by submitting the Participation Form SS 2023 via email to sebastian.ach@fau.de by February 15, 2023.
  • Please indicate your preferred topics. Preference will be given to the earliest submissions.
  • After being assigned to a specific topic, students can repeal their participation within a week’s time. After that deadline has passed, participation in the seminar is mandatory. Students not handing in a thesis on time will be graded a 5.0.
  • Please note that the maximum number of participants is 10 students.
  • Additional information on how to write a seminar paper, how to search for literature, etc. will be provided in an introductory session.
