Education objectives
The PhD aims to allow Masters in Economics, Finance, and Management or in related compatible areas the development of knowledge at an advanced level and the capacity to research problems in their specific domain.
The curriculum is designed to equip students with the tools to pursue the most challenging careers. While disciplined and rigorous in training, the program is also flexible for students to pursue their unique research interests. Students customize their program within their chosen discipline to their own goals and research interests. Upon acceptance into the PhD program, students are assigned to a thesis supervisor who accompanies the research process and development.
Throughout their PhD program, students attend Research Seminars (with invited guests, faculty members, and PhD students), present their work in conferences and complete one semester abroad. At Nova SBE you will be specifically encouraged to attend job market conferences during your last year in the program.
It is a program designed to provide a quite solid general background at an advanced level to all those who desire to become competitive at a scientific level.
Framed in this general goal, it is also desired that the graduates of the PhD Program in management attain the specific learning goals:
1.Development and systematic application of the capacity to understand and equate problems in a critical way and the capacity to produce individual autonomous, original research work.
