  • Marc Piopiunik

Abstract

This volume was prepared by Marc Piopiunik while he has been working at the Ifo Institute. It was completed in June 2011 and accepted as a doctoral thesis by the Department of Economics at the University of Munich. It includes four self-contained empirical studies. All studies aim at contributing to the understanding of the determinants of educational outcomes in Germany, with each chapter addressing a different determinant: individual characteristics (Chapter 2), family background (Chapter 3), teacher characteristics (Chapter 4), and education system (Chapter 5).
