Dina Dreisbach

Prof. Dr. Dina Dreisbach serves as Professor of Economics and Business Administration and Dean of the Center for Business Education at South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences, holding dual leadership in the Department of Electrical Power Engineering and business education initiatives. She directs the International Summer School Soest/New York Institute of Technology exchange program and oversees the university's collaboration with Southern Connecticut State University.

Her academic background includes doctoral studies and promotion at Julius-Maximilians-Universität Würzburg, where she earned her degree in Economics (Volkswirtschaftslehre) following studies at Denstone College in England. Her research trajectory demonstrates a strategic evolution from foundational work on international debt crises and moral hazard to contemporary energy market analysis, with recent publications focusing on renewable integration and hydrogen storage economics in German electricity markets.

Dreisbach's publication trends reveal a methodological shift from theoretical game-theoretic models of financial crises (2008-2011) toward empirical energy market analysis (2022-2024), maintaining consistent focus on market design and policy implications. This progression aligns with her teaching portfolio covering Advanced International Economics, Energy Markets, and Auction Theory across multiple degree programs including Business Administration with Informatics and International Management.

Her administrative roles encompass curriculum development for Industrial Engineering and International Management programs, with particular emphasis on bridging business administration and technical energy systems through the Center for Business Education framework. Dreisbach maintains active industry engagement through consultation hours and program coordination from her office in Soest.
