Program's Structure and Tracks
Here you may see the two-year timeline general structure.
As you may observe, in the second year (3rd and 4th semesters) you will have the freedom to customize your courses according to your own choices and preferences. By doing so, at graduation you will have the knowledge and the expertise necesary for following the tracks you feel atracted to.
There are three possible tracks:
- Pre-PhD Accounting Track
- Pre-PhD Finance/Statistics Track
- Business Oriented Track
The academia oriented tracks (1 & 2) prepare you for your PhD dissertation research, being integrated with three years PhD Programs which are common in Europe as part of five years Graduate Programs. Planed activities are meant to expose you to research methodology courses which will develop your research skills, as well as courses offering you deep knowledge in the field of accounting, finance and statistics.
The business-oriented track (3) prepares you to undertake top positions in multinational corporations, auditing firms, consulting firms and financial institutions. Planed activities are meant to enable you to better understand the business environment while also getting in touch with business research and most frequently used empirical and analytical tools.
