Tim Ruberg

About me
I am Project Assistant Professor at The University of Tokyo. In my research, I am using microeconometric evaluation methods to study the causal impact of policy interventions and education programs on a wide range of individual outcomes such as health, educational attainment, and labor market performance.

I obtained my PhD from the University of Hohenheim and completed research stays at Keio University, The University of Tokyo, The University of Sydney, and the Australian National University.
