The AMSE PhD program: roughly 10 years in numbers

The AMSE PhD program was officially launched in 2012, shortly after the birth of Aix-Marseille University, when AMSE was created to unite researchers in economics from four research centers (GREQAM, DEFI, CEA, SESSTIM). The program was built on the existing GREQAM program. This column provides an outline of the program as it stands after (about) 10 years and describes some of the main changes it has undergone. It also gives us the opportunity to answer some frequently asked questions about the program. Note: Figures presented here only concern the “classic” PhD track.
