The VGSE faculty members are recognized as experts in their respective fields by the international research community. They are specialists in one of the three areas of economic research (microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics). They either contribute to developing the techniques needed in modern economic research or apply them in their fields of expertise.
Each individual VGSE faculty member has an extensive network of international collaborators. VGSE builds on these relationships for inviting guest professors, for organizing small workshops at which students present their results, and for initiating student exchange.
