Philippos Louis

Philippos Louis serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Economics at the University of Cyprus, where he has held academic positions since 2017. He additionally co-coordinates the MSc in Behavioural Economics program jointly offered by the Economics and Psychology departments, demonstrating cross-disciplinary leadership in graduate education.

His academic foundation includes:

• Ph.D. in Economic Analysis from Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona (2012)
• M.Sc. in Economic Analysis from Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona (2007)
• B.Sc. in Public and Business Administration from the University of Cyprus (2005)

Dr. Louis's research centers on game theory, organizational economics, and market design, employing rigorous theoretical modeling combined with laboratory experimentation. His work consistently bridges abstract economic theory with empirical validation, particularly examining strategic behavior in collective decision-making contexts and institutional mechanisms. This dual-methodology approach positions him at the intersection of traditional economic theory and behavioral insights.

His publication record reveals sustained contributions to auction theory, preference aggregation mechanisms, and equilibrium concepts across top economics journals. Notable patterns include experimental validation of theoretical models in spectrum auctions (2024), innovative approaches to opinion aggregation (2023), and foundational work on equilibrium theory (2021), demonstrating both methodological consistency and topical evolution within game-theoretic frameworks.

No scientific awards are documented in the available materials.

As co-coordinator of the MSc in Behavioural Economics, Dr. Louis plays a significant role in graduate curriculum development and student mentorship. While specific grant funding details aren't provided, his research output in premier journals like the American Economic Review and Economic Journal indicates successful research productivity. His work on market design mechanisms suggests potential relevance to telecommunications and public policy domains.

His research trajectory shows continuity with postdoctoral affiliations at specialized market design centers—the ESEI Centre in Zurich and AGORA Centre in Sydney—which informs his current work on auction systems and collective decision-making. These institutional connections highlight his embeddedness in the global market design research community while contributing to the University of Cyprus's economics department as both researcher and program leader.
