A message from the Chair and the Program Director

In 1990, the Carroll School of Management introduced the PhD Program in Finance.  Our Program aims to equip graduates with the in-depth knowledge and analytical abilities they need to teach and pursue research of the highest quality.  We seek students who have a passion to understand the dynamics of the complex financial markets and the innerworkings of the world's leading companies. 

Our PhD Program provides a mix of rigorous and diverse coursework in economics and finance with some of the leading instructors in the field.  Renowned for its strong research environment, our Finance Department consistently ranks among the top departments in the United States for journal publications.

The collegial environment at BC is a hallmark of our doctoral program.  Students typically collaborate with one another and with faculty to produce groundbreaking research.  We place a high priority on encouraging students to follow their own research agendas as soon as possible.  At the Carroll School of Management, we provide the opportunity for individual creativity - it is at the heart and soul of what we do.
