About this position

The Department of Economics at the University of Gothenburg invites applications for up to six PhD positions beginning September 1, 2027. The doctoral programme offers rigorous training in economic theory and empirical methods, followed by independent research leading to a PhD in Economics.

The remaining years focus primarily on thesis research, academic writing, and participation in departmental duties. Research opportunities span areas including labor, environmental, development, health, behavioral, and financial economics.

Doctoral researchers become active members of the Department of Economics, an international research environment of approximately 100 employees. They participate in seminars and workshops, present and discuss their work, and interact with faculty, visiting researchers, and fellow doctoral students. Research visits to universities abroad are encouraged to support international networks and collaboration.

Students receive faculty supervision and are prepared for research careers in academia and other research-focused institutions.
