Obiettivi Formativi

The aim of this course is to introduce the students to the economic analysis of topics related to human resources management within organizations. More specifically, students will have the chance to both apply statistical and econometric methods to specific topics related to work organization within companies and to test with real-world data the main personnel economics theories.

At the end of the course, the student will be able to: 1) understand the main economic determinants and impacts of different human resources policies within the firm, also considering the institutional context in which the firm operates; 2) define a research question related to personnel economics, identify and/or collect data to empirically answer this question and implement the empirical analysis; 3) provide some policy recommendations for both companies and policy makers at different levels (local, national and international).

This course is useful to both students who want to work, equipped with quantitative skills, in the HR department of companies, and to students who want to pursue a career as economic analysts or consultants.
