Scholarships: PhD in Economics and Economic History at the Tuscan Universities

The PhD programme in Economics of the Tuscan Universities is pleased to announce a supplementary call for applications for the 40th cycle. Submissions in Economic History are welcome. The second call for applications is open until July 30, 2025, with an additional week allowed for reference letters.

We are awarding 5 positions with full scholarships, distributed as follows:

3 are ‘free topic’: PhD candidates awarded shall carry out their research activities on a topic agreed upon with their thesis supervisor.

2 are linked to specific research themes, for which a tailored research project must be submitted.

Candidates are required to apply to each type of position in separate procedures. Those applying to ‘free topic’ positions can submit a single application. For the two ‘specific research themes’, a separate application is necessary for each. We suggest potential candidates apply first to the ‘free topic’ positions and adapt, when appropriate, their proposal to the thematic calls.
