About this position
The Graduate School of Economics, Finance, and Management (GSEFM) offers a doctoral programme at Goethe University Frankfurt, in cooperation with Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and Technische Universität Darmstadt. The programme is built around four tracks: accounting, economics, finance, and marketing.
Students receive a two-year cycle of doctoral-level coursework designed to provide a rigorous methodological foundation in the core area of their track, followed by research-frontier courses in areas such as accounting, development and international economics, econometrics, finance, macroeconomics, marketing, and microeconomics. The structure is intended to support a smooth transition from coursework into dissertation research.
During the dissertation phase, the programme includes a third-year research paper requirement, a guided teaching component, transferable skills training, and a job market course. This reflects a strong emphasis on preparing candidates not only for independent research, but also for presenting their work effectively in academic and professional environments.
The programme is based in Frankfurt am Main, a major financial centre with extensive links to banks, companies, research institutions, and international organisations. The GSEFM environment combines academic training with research discussion and career preparation, and it highlights graduates’ placement into academia, public institutions, international organisations, and the private sector.
