3 Doctorate Degrees in Econometrics 2022

The purpose of the Ph.D. in Econometrics is to develop advanced competencies in the mastering, interpretation, understanding, analysis, and application of econometric techniques. -

The knowledge output of the graduate is familiarity with advanced models of theoretical microeconomics, macroeconomics, and econometrics. Specialized output is knowledge of advanced theoretical and econometric models in those areas of economics that the graduate chooses as their specialization and in which he/she then conducts independent research (e.g. labor market economics, finance, etc.). Further specialized output is the knowledge of current scientific literature in the field of graduate research. The general knowledge output of the graduate is the knowledge of advanced mathematical methods and passive and active use of the English language at the level allowing to perform scientific work at the international level. -

The program is based on a mathematical background, which involves probability theory, stochastic processes, mathematical and computational statistics, optimization, econometrics, operational research, financial and insurance mathematics. The connected creative work is represented especially by the basic mathematical research, and partly by applications, e.g. in finance and insurance. The doctoral students enhance their knowledge in advanced courses and seminars, according to their individual study plans. Under the supervision of their advisor, they provide research work on a given topic and publish their results and present them at scientific conferences. The study branch will prepare experts who can become successors of faculty professors, others will profit from their mathematical thought in practice. -
