🚀 I’m excited to share that I’m on the #EconSky job market this year! In my #EconJMP, I study how teachers in Finnish upper secondary schools impact students’ socio-emotional skills – and the labor market returns of these effects! (🧵, 1/N)

New WP: “University as a Melting Pot: Long-term Effects of Internationalization” Debates on international students often focus on capacity constraints, funding, or competition. In the paper, I show that the main effects of internationalization on natives are not academic or economic, but social.

We continue our series of seminars tomorrow! Tune in to hear Stanislav Avdeev present! 🕛Nov 25 at 5:30pm CET 📷 Zoom registration: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
