Master Seminars:
- The Chair regularly offers a seminar in the winter term, alternating each year between "Gesundheits?konomik/Health Economics" and "Empirische Gesundheits?konomik/Empirical Health Economics". In terms of content, it builds on the corresponding course from the previous semester, which you should ideally have attended. Attending the course "Mikro?konometrie"/"Microeconometrics" is also strongly recommended.
- Please also register for the relevant Digicampus course in good time. You will find all information about the preliminary meeting and the seminar there. You can find the link to the seminar on our website under teaching.
Please note the following guidelines:
- Health economics is a largely empirical discipline. Therefore, we recommend that students attend empirically minded courses prior to participating in a seminar. For Bachelor students we recommend ?Introductory Econometrics" or ?Methods in Empirical Social Sciences" and for Master students ?Econometrics" or ?Microeconometrics". Additionally, it is advisable to attend ?Introductory Health Economics" for a Bachelor's seminar and ?Health Economics-Topics" or ?Health Economics-Financing" for the Master's seminar.
- The instructions for writing scientific papers ( download) should be taken seriously.
- Every paper must be presented at the Chair in the form of an oral presentation.
- The seminar paper should comprise 15–18 pages from the introduction to the conclusion, excluding the cover sheet, table of contents, references and any appendices. A sample cover sheet and a LaTeX template are available here.
