Vienna Graduate School of Finance (VGSF)

The Vienna Graduate School of Finance (VGSF) is a center of excellence for finance. Located in Vienna (Austria), it was founded by the Institute for Advanced Studies (IHS), the University of Vienna, and the WU (Vienna University of Economics and Business). These three institutions joined forces, and their expertise, to create a hub in Vienna aiming to produce internationally recognized research and provide a competitive PhD education.
