Working as a Student Assistant at Department of Economics
At the Department of Economics (ECON), Copenhagen Business School (CBS), Frederiksberg, Denmark we regard it a central task to explain what motivates decision-makers, how economic institutions are — or should be — designed, and whether the interaction between institutional design and motivation leads to an efficient or optimal outcome from society's point of view. Our research is often related to specific challenges facing different organizations.
We are looking for a student research assistant for an average of 12 hours per week. It is expected that you can be physically present at the institute a few times a week, but specific working hours will be agreed upon.
The position has a large degree of flexibility, including during exam periods and has a fixed duration until 31 January 2025. The start date is as soon as possible. You are expected to be able to be present at the department on a regular basis. However, this will be defined in more detail together with your supervisor.
Specifics for the positions and your role
The core activity of the student assistant will be compiling and cleaning data, writing code to implement analysis as directed by researchers in our department, produce publication style tables and figures, and support faculty in working with registry data. You will undertake various tasks, including but not limited to: data management, statistical programming, literature reviews. Some ad-hoc tasks will also be required.
The Person
You will have a good understanding of economics and/or statistics, e.g. from the pursuit of a related degree, as well as a good understanding of STATA. Solid academic grades in your current studies, fluency in English, an ability to work independently as well as in teams, good organizational skills, and a willingness/enthusiasm to learn new methods will also be important. Basic knowledge of Matlab and fluency in Danish are an asset but not required.
