Undergraduate and graduate dissertations can focus on positive and negative externalities, public goods, gender inequality in education, in the job environment, and in the socio-economic area overall, experimental and behavioral economics (as, for example, the development of social and moral norms, non-standard preferences as altruism, equity, etc.). I expect students to develop their own ideas, and I suggest them to use google scholar for inspiraton.Teaching activity current year
