The subject of our research is the model-based and empirical analysis of risks and innovation processes in the context of companies, projects and (critical) infrastructures, such as supply chains and markets in particular. We analyse these topics from an economic perspective with interdisciplinary research partners. We prefer to use quantitative research methods from the fields of operations research, behaviour-based decision theory and game theory.

Our research on the topic of "Economic Analysis of Cyber Risks" is part of the KASTEL Security Research Labs at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). You can find out more here.

Professor Wiens has been Chair of the Doctoral Committee of the Faculty of Business Administration and Economics since October 2025. You can find out more about the doctoral committee here.
