4 PhD Programs in Economic Studies in Spain for 2024

This program is adapted to a specialized and competitive postgraduate offer with respect to the university, national and international environment, increasing the social prestige of postgraduate studies. This proposal is intended to reinforce the prestige of USC's research career.

This doctoral program provides a double continuity: first, to the previously existing doctoral program, and secondly to the Official Master's Degree in Regional Development and Economic Integration, which provides the teaching period. It deals with a rigorous, transversal program with the participation of multiple areas of knowledge, seeking interdisciplinarity in the analysis rather than the excessive specialization that occurred in some of the doctoral courses of a more formalistic nature, scarcely intensive and with hardly any orientation to the research training.

The Doctoral Program in Economic Analysis and Business Strategy arises from the commitment of a group of professors from the Faculties of Economic and Business Sciences of the three Universities of the Galician University System (SUG) who intend to join efforts to train researchers capable of publishing their work in Internationally distributed journals specializing in economics and in academic journals featured in the Journal of Citation Report (JCR).

Statistics and operations research are today of great importance as part of mathematics and as disciplines necessary for the understanding and advancement of other branches such as Economics, Engineering or Medicine, among others.
