Congrats to Astrid Olsen. On Monday she successfully defended her PhD thesis "The Role of Career Guidance in Reducing Access to Higher Education". It was a privilege to advise her. Thankfully we will have the opportunity to continue working together in the EDUCHANGE (www.educhange.hi.is) project.

We are hiring two postdoctoral scholars in the ERC project EDUCHANGE in Iceland. The project is a large-scale cross-country experimental study which aims to analyze if social inequality in educational attainment can be reduced by providing students with targeted information and guidance.
