About this program
Doctorate in Business and Economics
The recently created Doctoral Program in Business and Economics of the University of Aveiro, with three branches of specialization - Economics, Management and Finance - responds to the requests of researchers and graduates to continue their doctoral studies in these areas of knowledge, tackling a gap that exists not only in the context of the doctoral programs of the University of Aveiro, but also, due to its differential nature, in the context of the education Programs in these areas in Portugal.
The aim of this Doctoral Program is to provide solid, advanced and updated scientific training at theoretical, methodological and applied levels in the fields of Economics, Management and Finance, training doctors with the capacity to pursue scientific research not only in academia but also in business, providing them with a more complete and in-depth understanding of economic and business reality, so as to be more productive in their activities, produce state of the art research and share their new knowledge by publishing scientific articles, attending conferences or training of new professionals. It is the specific objective of this Doctoral Program to satisfy the growing need for a body of experts capable of responding to the challenges posed by the complexity of the problems affecting, among others, the financial sector, industry, environment and energy, telecommunications, labor and Education, tourism and health.
