Q&A

Questions

• What are the benefits and costs of immigration?

• What do you think of different types of experiments (field (call-back and interaction), audit (e-mail and post), survey or lab)?

• How to think (and research) intersectionality in discrimination?

• What is paper-cut discrimination? What could we do about it? Will our solutions really help (think of adverse selection)?

Roundtable

• Name two most important take aways from this course (research-wise)
• Which debate do you still see as inconclusive?
• How do you see the role of social science (for immigration)?

Q&A on the template

• Tell (in two sentences) what is the problem that you are going to address.
• Will you be able to gather relevant data? What may go wrong? If you already have the data – did it play out the way you hoped?
• How do you connect theory and empirical work?
• Did your results surprise you? And do you think your results are relevant for the IRC?

Tips & Tricks

• Few or no sentences on the slides
• Tell a story (not your paper)
• Use images (but not too many)
• Start with the problem and your solution

Thank you and see you in Brussels on June 5th
