Julian Sagebiel

I am a researcher at the "Decision-making and Managerial Behavior" group at the Department of Economics. My main research interests relate to applied and methodical challenges in non-market valuation and experimental economics. I have a strong focus on discrete choice modelling and discrete choice experiments.

Teaching

I teach in environmental (micro)economics and statistics. Whenever possible, I use new digital tools such as interactive RMarkdown manuscripts and Shiny applications to ease the understanding of complex statistical and economic theory.  My research philosophy is based on the idea that learning works best when students  literally observe how theory and methods work. Interest in research is maximized when students are able to apply recently acquired theory and methods. Therefore, I usually integrate applied empirical research projects in my courses. In some cases, the results of such projects have been published in scientific journals.

Research

I am currently working in the EU funded project Contracts2.0 (H2020) on behavioral aspects of agri-environmental schemes and in the project Extreme weather (Formas) on farmers' behavioral responses to increasing extreme weather events and risks.

Background

I specialized in discrete choice modelling and non-market valuation. I hold a diploma degree (Master equivialent) in Economics with a focus on Experimental Economics from  Otto-von-Guerricke Universität Magdeburg and have received my PhD from Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin. In my PhD thesis I worked on discrete choice experiments applied to energy topics in India and Germany. Having worked and taught for about eight years at the Institute for Ecological Economy Research in Berlin and the Technische Universität Berlin, I have gained a deep understanding of methodical and applied challenges in non-market valuation and discrete choice modelling.

Adjacent to my interest in science, I have a passion for statistical programming and data management, especially in Stata and R. I try to combine these skills with my scientific interests to make (collaborative) work more productive and transparent and to test and enhance econometric methods.
