Hi there, welcome!

My name is Eyayaw Beze, and I am a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Duisburg-Essen. My research focuses on urban and regional economics, particularly housing market issues. Additionally, I am highly interested in data science with R and Python.

Short bio

I grew up in a small village called Shumshuha [ሹምሹሃ] (aka Lalibela Airport) about 10km southwest of the historic town Lalibela, Ethiopia.

I went to Bahir Dar University for my undergrad, for my master’s to KDI School in South Korea, and to Budapest, Regensburg and Trento for a joint European master in comparative local development (Master CoDe).

For more than three years, I worked for Jimma University, department of Economics, where I taught undergrad economics courses.

Now, I am a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Duisburg-Essen.
