Wonderful learning opportunity for our @ucddublin students, who took a field trip to the Irish parliament (Dáil Éireann) this week. They could learn firsthand from TD @sineadgibney how the legislative process works in Ireland. Many thanks to @EndaHargaden for organising!
Enda Hargaden@EndaHargaden

Landmark day for some UCD students with a class trip to the Dáil. Parliamentary staff put on a fab workshop on the committee stages of legislative scrutiny, and a million thanks to Deputy Sinéad Gibney and her staff for a brilliant, close-up tour the building and the chamber.

Truly honored to receive @Unibocconi’s Teaching Award for Student Engagement! I am super happy knowing I sparked even a glimpse of my enthusiasm for macroeconomics in students - even those studying management 😉-- and that it meant something to them. unibocconi.it/it/news/teachi…

The Trump tariffs are shaking the global economy and will have implications for Ireland. In an interview with @BBCnireland, @ucddublin Economist @StreckerNM explains the expected impacts for dairy and drinks producers in Ireland. 👇
Nora Strecker@StreckerNM

Made it on the BBC (NI edition)! Asked about the impact of the Trump tariffs 2.0 on Irish dairy and drinks producers -- they will feel the impact most. Labor-intensive sectors with no tariff safeguarding and ready American substitutes. @EconomicsUCD @ucdsocscilaw @ucddublin

die mit kleinen Mitteln gute Arbeit gemacht hat. Workshop on Political Economy, Workshop on Regional Economics, etc. So kamen in der Vergangenheit Spitzenforscher an die Elbe. All das wird nicht mehr so sein wie früher. Mir blutet das Herz. 3/3

Heute ist ein sehr trauriger Tag für alle Aktiven, Ehemaligen und Freunde der ifo Niederlassung Dresden. Mit Unverständnis sehe ich die Kürzungen des Freistaats in der Wissenschaft. Die VWL-Standort an der TU Dresden schrumpft damit weiter. 1/ tagesschau.de/inland/regiona….

Happy to share that my job market journey is over! Later this year, I’ll be joining University College Dublin @EconomicsUCD as an Assistant Professor of Economics. Feeling unreal, being part of such a fantastic group - an outcome of hard work, luck, and the support of many. (1/3)
