PhD Scholarships in Economics, Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan, Italy


2010 Call for Pre-Applications for the PhD Program in Economics
The Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore offers a 3 year Program of Doctoral Studies in Economics fully accredited worldwide.
Three merit-based scholarships will be awarded to the most outstanding students.
The Program, taught entirely in English, provides an excellent training for study and research in the various fields of economics. It has a long and consolidated tradition of post-graduate teaching and research in both theoretical and applied economics. Since its inception, more than one hundred students have successfully completed the PhD Program, and many of them are working in leading academic and non-academic, prestigious institutions like the Federal Reserve, the European Commission, the United Nations, the European Central Bank, the Bank of England and the Bank of Italy.

The first year of the PhD Program is devoted mainly to advanced course work in Mathematics for economics, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, Econometrics and a considerable number of frontier state-of-the-art research topics. Full time research is pursued over the following two (or exceptionally three) years, during which each student must write his or her thesis. Students are encouraged and financially supported to carry out part of their studies at leading foreign universities in order to allow them to exchange and compare ideas on a broader scale.
Application
To apply, please read the Call for Pre-Applications downloadable at www.unicatt.it/phdeconomics where the procedure is described. It consists of two stages, a pre-application and an official application. The pre-application is recommended but not necessary while the official application is.
