The Ruhr Graduate School of Economics (RGS Econ) offers research and higher education in economics. Emphasis is on analytical theories and advanced methods.
Doctoral students at the RGS Econ are provided with thorough training in advanced methods in economics. They are taken to the frontier of state-of-the-art research in all fields of Economics. Members are integrated into a stimulating research environment composed of three universities and an independent Research Institute, which harbour an ambitious and excellent faculty. Its approach is clearly a disciplinary one as opposed to an interdisciplinary one by trying to cover all major areas of Economics from positive theorizing to empirical validation and policy design as well as evaluation. This focus on economics per se is calculated to facilitate a particular early start of individual research.
