of Charles University

The Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education of Charles University in Prague (CERGE) invites interested persons to apply to its program of doctoral studies in theoretical and applied economics, leading to a PhD degree which is fully accredited in the Czech Republic (US accreditation pending).

CERGE provides modern post-graduate training in the field of economics. The four-year program consists of two years of coursework followed by two years of supervised dissertation research. The working language of the institution is English. CERGE encourages its students to conduct part of their dissertation research at partner institutions in Western Europe and North America as well as to participate in collaborative research projects in other countries. CERGE graduates have assumed positions in governmental ministries as policy advisors, as chief economists of international banks, and as academics at universities and research institutions all over the world.

The annual application deadline is 15 March. Detailed information can be found at our webpage :

Students from Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union are granted tuition waivers and stipends during their time of study--no separate application is necessary. Successful applicants will be invited to participate in a competitive two-month preparatory semester in July and August, after which time final admissions decisions will be made.
