Students who already have a master degree can enrol in the programme and finish one year of coursework and then work on their thesis. The PhD programme in Economics is organised in cooperation with the Cluster of Excellence ECONtribute: Markets and Public Policy and the Center for Social and Economic Behavior at the UoC (C-SEB).
Scholarships are available for the three doctoral study programmes within the specific Key Research Initiatives of the faculty, for the EWI fellowship programme in cooperation with the Institute of Energy Economics and for the PhD programme in Economics.
