Introduction of the Research Group
The BME GTK Quantitative Social and Management Sciences Research Center is committed to addressing challenges in social and management sciences through the use of exact, quantitative methods. The different streams of research resting on a common methodological platform stimulate interdisciplinary approaches that go beyond the boundaries of thematic classifications and arches over fields such as network science, experimental economics, industrial organization and game theory. The Research Group strives beyond academic excellence to disseminate its results and expertise to the broader academic community, students, professionals and society via joint projects and public events.
