Board appoints new BSE Research Professors
Research Professorships are funded by the BSE research endowment to increase the critical mass of top scientists in its academic community.
Professors Flip Klijn (IAE-CSIC and BSE) and Inés Macho-Stadler (UAB and BSE) have been named Research Professor by the Barcelona School of Economics Board of Trustees. Professor Hannes Mueller (IAE-CSIC and BSE) has been named Associate Research Professor.
The distinction of BSE Research Professor is a joint appointment between the BSE and one of its academic units. The appointments began in 2009 to increase the critical mass of top scientists at the BSE.
Research Professorships are funded by the BSE research endowment, which is dedicated exclusively to supporting these appointments. With the new appointments, there are now 23 BSE Research Professors, five Associate Research Professors, and four Emeritus Research Professors.
