Andrew Sonta serves as an Assistant Professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL), specializing in interdisciplinary research at the nexus of environmental policy, real estate economics, and behavioral science.

His scholarly work investigates how green building regulations influence residential markets and societal outcomes, with a geographic focus on Switzerland. Key research themes include the economic valuation of sustainability certifications, mental health correlations with housing environments, and machine learning applications for policy impact forecasting. Current projects examine institutional frameworks shaping eco-friendly construction norms and resident well-being metrics.

Recent publications analyze Switzerland's green residential policy landscape, demonstrating methodological integration of behavioral economics and computational techniques to quantify regulatory effectiveness across economic and social dimensions.
