Andrea Burro

I am a fourth year PhD candidate in Economics at the University of St. Gallen.

My main research fields are labor economics and experimental economics, with a focus on education.

I studied Economics at Bocconi University, and worked at IGIER, LEAP, EUI, C-BID and GREEN.

News:

I will visit Bocconi University, hosted by Michela Carlana during Winter and Spring 2026.

I secured funding on wemakeit to run a field experiment on self-esteem and procrastination.
I visited the University of Chicago, hosted by John List during Fall 2025.
