Our program prepares students for their future academic and research-oriented careers with a solid foundation in both theoretical and empirical financial research. Students receive training in asset pricing, corporate finance, corporate governance, investment analysis, financial markets, macro-financial issues, microeconomics, banking theory, econometrics and cutting-edge current practices, including research methods and scientific ethics. The academic staff of our faculty is actively engaged in research, especially in the field of empirical finance. Our students actively observe how their theoretical and empirical knowledge is used in research and the financial market within the scope of the KHAS Finance Webinar Series, where guests from the world’s leading universities and financial institutions are hosted.
The program seeks students with a high intellectual level who demonstrate a strong curiosity, interest, responsibility, and commitment to high-quality research. Prospective students are expected to be prepared to embark on independent work to conduct scientific research and to have strong analytical skills. Faculty members of the department actively work with students in scientific research projects. The faculty members of the department and Kadir Has University strive to ensure that the students of the Ph.D. Department have the necessary infrastructure for academic positions and job placements in high-quality research institutions.
The strength of the Ph.D. Program is strengthened by the fact that Istanbul is the financial center of the private sector and at the same time close to high-level policy and research institutions such as the CBRT, CMB, BIST. Faculty and students strive to find a way to take advantage of the synergies that can arise with institutions in banking, investment banking and finance, such as research activities, idea development, co-authoring projects and joint seminars. In addition to pursuing an academic career at universities in Turkey and abroad, our graduates graduate with the equipment to successfully work in different institutions such as regulatory institutions such as CBRT, CMB, BIST, banks, investment banks, portfolio management companies, international, private and local companies, public institutions.
