PhD in Economics (DOECO)

The well-being of society depends on the application of adequate economic policies, both at the level of individual agents and of macroeconomic policy makers. Although there are established prescriptions and methods in the field of economics, many questions remain about the relevance of actions at both the micro and macroeconomic levels. There are problems that require original answers developed from the rigorous application of methods typical of this field. The need to find answers to economic problems takes on greater relevance in developing economies such as our country.

The Universidad Argentina de la Empresa has extensive experience in teaching and research in the economic field. The objective of creating a PhD in Economics is to promote the training of new generations of researchers with skills and methodological rigor for the production of scientific knowledge of the highest level. Secondly, the purpose of the degree is to consolidate the research work on economic issues that is carried out at the University's Institute of Economics and to generate a suitable framework for the development of new lines of research in the area. Finally, the career represents an opportunity to strengthen the academic training in research of teachers and graduates of the institution who wish to continue their studies at the postgraduate level.
