  • Uni Hohenheim - PhD position
    The Department of Ecological-Economic Policy Modelling (420d) at the University of Hohenheim, Germany, is looking for a highly motivated PhD candidate (f/m/d, 65%). The doctoral project focuses on demand elasticities for organic food and on how information campaigns influence biodiversity-friendly food purchases. The work is mainly applied econometrics: estimating demand systems (e.g. AIDS or EASI) with household scanner panel data and evaluating a quasi-experimental information campaign using difference-in-differences or event-study designs. The successful candidate will join a collaborative, interdisciplinary and international team working on ecosystems, environmental policy, consumer behaviour and sustainability impacts. Requirements: a completed Master's degree in agricultural economics, economics, environmental economics or a related field; solid skills in econometrics and quantitative methods; very good programming skills in R or Stata; and excellent written and spoken English. Experience with household scanner data, demand system estimation or (quasi-)experimental evaluation is an advantage.
