Stefan Pollinger is Assistant Professor of Economics at Sciences Po (tenure track). He joined the Department in 2021 just after completing his doctoral dissertation at the Toulouse School of Economics (TSE).

His research focuses on the evaluation and optimisation of public policies. The theoretical part focuses on deriving optimal public policies as a function of observable sufficient-statistics. His research's empirical part focuses on recovering sufficient-statistics for optimal policy design by using novel quasi-experimental identification strategies. He is also interested in applications in public economics, environmental economics, and health economics.
