Our research
In our research, we investigate the behaviour of human and machine market participants in digital markets and its effects from an economic perspective. A connecting element of our diverse research is the existence of a (digital) platform through which market participants (e.g. customers) are brought together with other or similar market participants (e.g. sellers or other customers) and through which they can interact with each other. The market participants influence the platform (e.g. by contributing content in the form of product reviews) and are in turn influenced by the platform (e.g. through the design of the rating system) ...
"The digital transformation affects everyone: Employers and employees, students and families, young and old. In the countryside and in the city. In the workshop next door and in large companies. This harbours great opportunities - but also challenges."

Research with students
We consistently pursue the approach of research-based learning in all our modules - at both Bachelor's and Master's level. We also endeavour to integrate our students into the academic world at an early stage. The following list contains all publications of the chair at conferences and in journals with the participation of students at our faculty (the names of the students among the authors are italicised). We would like to congratulate these students on their great publication successes!
