The VGSF PhD-program in Finance consists of two parts: rigorous coursework and work on the PhD-thesis. The students attend courses covering all major topics in finance, and the analytical methods required for research. In particular, the courses focus on Corporate Finance, Asset Pricing, and Quantitative Methods in Finance. After passing the required exams, students start their own research projects (under the supervision of the faculty). All VGSF courses are subject to the university regulations.

VGSF courses can only be attended by students who have been admitted to the PhD program in Finance. Detailed information about the application procedure can be found here.
