Siena PhD in ECONOMICS - 2009
The University of Siena invites applications for the Graduate Program in
Economics. The University and the city offer a unique environment for
study and research in Europe.
Scholarship.
A maximum of 16 students will be admitted. The 8 most qualified
candidates will be awarded a four-year scholarship of about €10,500
($16,500) per year, after tax, for a total of about $42,000 ($67,000),
plus tuition remission. A limited number of students can take advantage
of lodging offered by the University of Siena in the Post-Graduate
College “S. Chiara” (http://www.unisi.it/santachiara/homeEn.html) sited
in the historical centre of Siena.
The Graduate Program.
The goal of the program is to train professional economists. Former
students hold positions as economists in the academia, in consulting
businesses, and in national and internationals economic institutions,
such as central banks and regulators.
The first two years of the Program are devoted to full-time courses. All
of these are taught in English, the official language of the Program.
After fundamental training in Mathematics, Microeconomics,
Macroeconomics and Econometrics, a full menu of specialized courses is
offered. Students are exposed to different theoretical and
methodological points of view, in order to be able to explore the
frontier of economics in an original way. Students are also required to
participate in research activities, such as economics seminars and
workshops. Admission to the second year is conditioned on the results of
all first year final exams. Starting from the second year, students will
develop their own research, under the supervision of a faculty member.
While working at their dissertation, students are encouraged to
undertake periods of research in foreign academic institutions. In this
case the scholarship is increased by 50%. The doctorate is awarded after
discussion of an original piece of scientific work (which can be written
in Italian or in English). For further information about the Program,
please visit http://www.econ-pol.unisi.it/dottorato/
