Wael Bousselmi, Professor of Finance at ESSCA, recently completed a research stay as a "visiting professor" at the University of Heidelberg within the Alfred Weber Institute of Economics (AWI), a research centre led by Professor Stefan Trauttman.

What exactly is a visiting professorship?

It is, above all, a unique opportunity to discover a new research environment and to actively contribute to the life of a research centre by participating in meetings, seminars, workshops organised on-site, and engaging in discussions with new fellow researchers.

The objectives of this experience?

  • To bring a researcher’s perspective to enrich the work of colleagues at the host institute
  • To gather valuable feedback and comments on one’s own research to improve its quality
  • To strengthen one’s professional network
  • To initiate new collaborations with new research team
