Wharton's Doctoral Program in Finance - ELB

Wharton's PhD program in Finance provides students with a solid foundation in the theoretical and empirical tools of modern finance, drawing heavily on the discipline of economics. Students build on this foundation and apply these tools to study frontier issues in asset pricing, corporate finance, financial institutions, international finance, behavioral finance, and macroeconomics.

The department is distinguished by the broad range of areas included in its curriculum and faculty research. Faculty research, both empirical and theoretical, includes such areas as: the structure of financial markets, the formation and behavior of financial asset prices, banking and monetary systems, corporate control and capital structure, saving and capital formation, international financial markets, and behavioral economics. Finance faculty are also active in the work of Wharton's Financial Institutions Center, Weiss Center for International Financial Research, and Rodney L. White Center for Financial Research.

Because financial research is analytical, candidates with undergraduate training in economics, mathematics, engineering, statistics, and other quantitative disciplines have an ideal background for doctoral studies in this field. The department prepares students for careers in research and teaching at the world's leading academic institutions, in such areas as asset pricing, corporate finance, financial institutions, international finance, behavioral finance, and macroeconomics.
