I supervise Bachelor and Master theses in macroeconomics and related fields. Supervision and thesis writing are conducted in English only.

1. Getting started

• Email me to request supervision and propose a first meeting.
• In your email, briefly include: tentative topic or research question, programme and level (BSc/MSc), and your intended timeline.

2. After the first meeting: 1-page project outline

Before the second meeting, submit a maximum 1-page outline (PDF is fine). This will be discussed in the second meeting to check feasibility and agree on next steps.

1. Research question (clearly stated and sufficiently specific - we can discuss further during the meeting)
2. Motivation (why it is interesting, and what it adds)
3. Data (if applicable: dataset(s), access, key variables)
4. Details on the approach and methodology (theoretical, empirical, quantitative; identification strategy if relevant)
5. Three relevant academic references (journal articles preferred)

3. Meetings and communication

• Meetings are typically scheduled every 2–3 weeks (unless otherwise agreed).
• Please send any materials for discussion by the day before the meeting.
• You are responsible for booking meetings and keeping track of programme deadlines and formal requirements.

4. Expectations for empirical work

• Have a realistic data access plan early.
• Maintain reproducible code and a clear project structure (data, scripts, outputs).
• Be prepared to justify variable choices and identification assumptions.

5. Roles

• The thesis is your independent work. I provide guidance and feedback on feasibility, structure, and academic quality.
• Feedback is most effective when you share concrete drafts, figures, or code snippets together with specific questions.
