Research monitoring: Prof. Steiner among the most research-intensive economists

In the current Business Administration Ranking 2019, conducted by the Economic Research Unit of ETH Zurich in cooperation with the Düsseldorf Institute for Competition Economics, Prof. Steiner ranks 479th (out of a total of 2983 economists) in the evaluation of research achievements since 2014. This places him among the top 15 percent of business economists with the most intensive research in the German-speaking world (German, Austrian and Swiss universities). The Business Administration ranking for individual researchers is based on the VHB-JOURQUAL ranking established in the field of business administration in the current version 3.0, and evaluates publications of scientists in peer-reviewed economic journals. Some top journals in which Prof. Steiner has published (e.g. Journal of Business and Economic Statistics, Impact Factor: 2.115; Journal of Applied Econometrics, Impact Factor: 2.336) are, however, not included in the VHB-JOURQUAL 3.0 ranking.

In the Lifetime Ranking, which takes into account all of a researcher's publications, Prof. Steiner also ranks among the top 15 percent of business economists with the highest research output.
