I recruit PhD students exclusively from Tilburg University's Research Master in Economics, which offers a standard two-year program of PhD courses and research work and forms an integral part of CentER's graduate program in Economics.

Research Master students with an interest in structural econometrics and computational economics are advised to take our course in Empirical Industrial Organization and to join the activities of the Structural Econometrics Group.
