The Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods in Bonn is an international research institute with two departments and several research groups.

The Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods is one of more than 80 institutions of the Max Planck Society. It is an internationally oriented research institute dealing with applied economics and behavioral analysis of law.

The Max Planck Institute for Research on Collective Goods is opening the position of

Head of a Max Planck Research Group (f/m/div) in the field of economics (W2-position)

**(duration**: 5 years)

The MPI for Research on Collective Goods has currently three departments, “Experimental Economics” (Director Matthias Sutter), “Behavioral Law and Economics” (Director Christoph Engel), and “Economic Design and Behavior” (Director Axel Ockenfels from 1 August 2023 onwards). The Max Planck Research Group shall complement these three departments. While the call is open for all fields in economics, we expect an overlap with the existing departments, in particular with those of directors Ockenfels and Sutter.

We are particularly interested in applicants with excellent knowledge in experimental methodology (in the lab or the field) or specific expertise in analyzing experimental/empirical data or in developing new methods to analyze such data.

Further information about our team and the institute can be found at
- Cover letter, explaining your research experience/interests and your relevant work experience, along with a proposed research programme and a description how your group fits into the economic departments at the MPI
- Your CV including a list of publications
- Copies of degree certificates (Bachelor’s/Master’s/PhD diplomas and transcripts) ODER your PhD thesis / dissertation
- Description of the project you plan for the research group (max. 3 pages)
- Transcripts of your academic achievements at university and, if applicable, work certificates
