This doctoral program will merge into the new Berlin School of Economics (BSE), incorporating more partners, e.g. the DIW Graduate Center. ESMT Berlin only offers doctorate-level education and PhD supervision through the BDPEMS/BSE program. Applications must be made directly via the Online Portal, with the program beginning in October. The program combines two years of coursework and usually another two years of dissertation research. After completing the first year core courses, students must find a supervisor from within the BDPEMS/BSE faculty.
ESMT Berlin also offers scholarships to students of this program.
