After the first year of thorough grounding in economics, econometrics and finance, the second year offers over 40 advanced specialization courses. Students are encouraged to check several options before choosing a research topic and a supervisor. Half of the second year is devoted to thesis research under expert supervision. In most cases, the master thesis supervisor continues as PhD thesis supervisor. A jumpstart of your PhD career!
The study programme includes three tracks: economics, econometrics and finance and offers advanced courses in the institute’s many fields of research. Detailed information on the study programme and all courses can be found here.
