All Finnish universities offering doctoral education in economics have slightly different degree requirements. Please consult the study guide of your home university. The examination normally has the following structure:
  • microeconomic theory
  • macroeconomic theory
  • history of economic thought and methodology of economics
  • mathematical-statistical methods of economics
  • field of specialization
  • active participation in tutorials and seminars
  • doctoral dissertation
All degrees are granted solely by the participating universities, not by FDPE. FDPE gives students a certificate of the courses passed within the programme.
