Twan Huybers is Associate Professor in the School of Business at UNSW Canberra.
My research interest is decision-making analysis including the study of individuals' choices and preferences. My work has focused mainly on the application of choice experiments and choice modelling approaches in a broad range of decision contexts. This includes the application of choice experimental methods to tourist tourist destination choices, household discretionary expenditure decisions, athletes' decisions on the use of performance-enhancing drugs, sponsorship decisions, university destination choices, student evaluation of teaching and programmes, academic research integrity, and student academic misconduct.
My wide-ranging research applications have been published in international journals including Journal of Travel Research, Tourism Management, Environmental and Resource Economics, Journal of Sport Management, Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, Higher Education Research and Development, and Accountability in Research.
I have a Masters degree (cum laude) in Economics and Business Administration from the University of Maastricht and a PhD degree in Economics from UNSW.
