She studied International Economic Studies at the University of Maastricht and at Sciences Po, Paris. After graduation, she continued her training in economics in the Advanced Studies Programme at the Kiel Institute for the World Economy.
Pia Pinger is a PhD candidate at the Department of Economics of the University of Mannheim and also affiliated with the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA).
