Welcome Elias Naumann

We are delighted to welcome Prof. Dr. Elias Naumann at the department as a visiting professor!

Elias' research focuses on political sociology and comparative welfare state research. In particular, he is interested in how societal changes — such as population ageing, migration, or economic and financial crises — affect political attitudes as well as solidarity and trust more broadly. Methodologically, his work centers on survey methods and questionnaire development, as well as the use of causal (experimental) research designs to study individual attitude change.

During his time at the department, he's holding lectures and seminars for Bachelor's and Master's student on survey methods and causal inference in the Social Sciences.

Dear Elias, we wish you a great time here in Zurich and all the best for your research and teaching!
- Best wishes the team at SUZ.
