The PhD in Economics at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice is a 4-year programme based in one of the most amazing cities in the world. The programme is entirely taught in English and offers advanced training in economics, econometrics and finance, providing highly selected students with instruments to conduct original research and pursue a career in academia or in economic and financial international organizations.
The first year is entirely dedicated to intensive course work, from the second year onwards, PhD students are dedicated to their own research, under the supervision of two members of the faculty. Besides working on their PhD dissertation, as part of the department community, students are involved in activities such as reading groups, seminars and teaching assistantship.
