Overview

The doctoral students will be able to participate in the Ph.D. program of the faculty and, depending on their interest and expertise, are encouraged to contribute to on-going research projects in the DERG. Apart from research, some participation in teaching is also expected.
Successful candidates are expected to hold a superior MA, Diplom or equivalent in economics or a closely related field.
