In the International Doctoral Program in Economics (IDPE), students will take specialized subjects, join the research workshop, and receive research guidance for their mandatory dissertations. The research workshop is conducted by inviting various eminent scholars specializing in modern economics. Students are required to complete:
- 4 credits of “Supervision for Doctoral Thesis"
- 2 credits from “Research Workshop”
- At least 2 credits from “Elective Subjects”
When writing the dissertation, each student will be supervised continuously and systematically by one main advisor and two other sub-advisors. Furthermore, the students will be allowed to take part in a variety of research projects conducted by the Department of Economic Engineering in order to practically improve their analytical facilities in specialized and related fields. Research results gleaned from the study of the front-line economics will be presented at domestic and international conferences and published as discussion papers and articles. Until the student completes his/her dissertation based on a series of these research achievements, the three advisors will provide thorough guidance. The authors of superior dissertations will have the opportunity to be awarded special recognition, and may take up the posts of assistant professor, former research associate, or research fellow.
