Check out our new guide for PhD students! @LIN_Mengwei and I edited material from classes by excellent economists on 7 topics - from idea generation to research outputs, plus skills like presenting and data visualization. Hope it makes the PhD process a bit easier to navigate!
Highly recommend this guide for economics PhD students, co-edited by @anna_chesa! It's a must-read for everyone, not just applied micro researchers (link in the comment).

Amazing! Last @LH_VPET_ECON core course. Thanks Prof. @Woessmann for offering us an encyclopedic, comprehensive understanding of the research landscape—truly invaluable for early-stage researchers like myself! Grateful also for the feedback on potential research projects💡
Last week, the Leading House course “Microeconomic Foundations of Economics of Education” by Prof. Ludger Wössmann took place 📚💻 18 doctoral students from all over Europe got to know the research frontier and state-of-the-art methods in economics of education research.
