About the Policy Lecture:
Economics provides tools and methods for analyzing and evaluating policy measures that focus on important social, political and economic problems. Still, there is often a perceived gap between academic analyses and the political reality. The Policy Lecture therefore seeks to bring together high-level policymakers and policy advisors with researchers and advanced students in the field of economic and environmental policy.
The key objectives of the Policy Lecture are:
- Understand how policymakers view economic research
- Understand how research can have an impact and why research also fails to have an impact
- Engage in discussions with high-level policy makers and policy advisors
- Identify personal career options in the science-policy interface
The Policy Lecture is open to all Master students, PhD Students and researchers at the University of Potsdam and our partner institutions in the Potsdam-Berlin area (MCC Berlin, PIK, DIW, BSE). Master students of the Economic Policy and Quantitative Methods (EPQM) Master program are esecially invited to participate.
