THE PhD IN FINANCE FORUM
Once a year, the EDHEC PhD in Finance Forum showcases the research produced by our PhD candidates and graduates to an international audience of academics and finance practitioners.
THE PhD IN FINANCE FORUM
Our experience running the PhD in Finance programme over the last fifteen years strongly suggests that experienced professionals with a strong academic background are capable of high-quality academic research with potential to make a difference in both academia and practice.
Each year, the EDHEC PhD in Finance Forum welcomes PhD candidates, graduates and faculty, who have thereby the opportunity to share their recent research findings.
SAVE THE DATE! Next EDHEC PhD in Finance Forum on 12 June 2025 on the Nice campus
