European Doctoral Program (EDP)

Our EDP

The European Doctoral Program (EDP) is a network of top economics departments in Europe, organized jointly by

March 2023:

The LSE is no longer an EDP partner as a result of Brexit.
The BGSE regrets this development and would like to thank all colleagues in London for the many years of trusting cooperation within the EDP.

The European Doctoral Program offers unique access to the traditions and current research fields of the member institutions. In other words, as a doctoral candidate at BGSE, you may visit one of the member institutions of the European Doctoral Program in Quantitative Economics for a research stay abroad.

A good time for a research visit is during the third year of your doctoral studies. Since places within the EDP are limited, decisions on acceptance are based on academic performance. If you are accepted to visit an EDP partner and if your supervisor in Bonn supports your plans, the BGSE finances your research visit for up to six months.
