Andrew Bell joined the Institute for European Tort Law (ETL) in April 2016. He read law as an undergraduate at the University of Cambridge, spending an exchange year at the Universität Regensburg and graduating in 2011. Andrew then studied for a master’s degree (LL.M.) in German law at the Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster. Whilst there, he worked as an assistant to Prof. Dr. Nils Jansen at that university’s Institute for Legal History. Following a brief period working in London, Andrew next joined ETL for four months in 2013 to work as a research assistant for its then Director, Prof. Ken Oliphant. Thereafter, Andrew moved back to the UK and began both to undertake his doctoral research and to work as a teaching associate at the University of Birmingham. He remained there until moving back to Vienna.
Andrew’s doctoral research project discusses the nature of non-pecuniary losses and damages awards made for them in the English tort of negligence, and is being supervised by Dr Claire McIvor (Birmingham).
Aside the law, Andrew enjoys running and playing the piano (somewhat poorly). He speaks English and German currently and is making slow but steady progress learning Dutch and Italian.
