PhD overview

In partnership with Eurizon Asset Management

The partnership with Eurizon Asset Management is defined as "Dottorato Industriale". The "Dottorato Industriale" is a method of collaboration between the University and labour market, defined by the Ministerial Decree of 14 December 2021 n. 226.
This type of collaboration allows companies to train, strengthening their skills, their permanent employees as part of a PhD course.
The company interested in the "Dottorato Industriale" must be engaged in research activities, possibly attested by patents and technical-scientific publications.
The training is developed jointly by the company and the Faculty of the PhD programme involved and includes both the attendance of university courses and research activity. The doctoral student is supervised by two supervisors, one in the academia and one within the company.

Educational aims

The PhD programme offers advanced training in the areas of economic and financial sciences, with a particular specialisation in quantitative and qualitative analysis of the numerous aspects and issues within financial-economic systems, at both a microeconomic level (how markets, economic organisations and businesses function, and predictions on their trends and prospects) and a macroeconomic level (issues regarding economic cycles and unemployment, and the impact of specific social and economic factors).

The programme is taught entirely in English.
