Tim's main research interests regard a comparative analysis of social cohesion and social solidarity in Europe. His current research project aims at explaining attitudes towards welfare state performance. Previously, he has been involved in a comparative research into the relation between ethnic-cultural diversity, integration policies and social cohesion in Europe.

In general, I teach courses on topics close to my research interest, namely on the social consequences of immigration and ethnocultural diversity. In the Master, I coordinate a course on Social Capital (i.e. structural (networks) and cultural (norms) characteristics of social organization that facilitate cooperation). In the Excellence Program of the Tilburg School of Social and Behavioral Sciences, I teach on Social Cohesion in a Multicultural Society. As for Bachelor and Master thesis topics, I am in general interested in supervising students interested in the study of social capital, generalized and political trust, national identity, social solidarity and support for welfare redistribution, and ethnic inequalities.
