Faculty of Law - Doctoral School
Courses:
The Corporate Governance course is offered by The Department of Private, International and Commercial Law (G.L.M. Casaregi). Its programme is set for a period of three years.
The Doctorate in Corporate Governance offers an exceptional opportunity for students who are interested in exploring, strengthening and further developing their research in the challenging field of corporate governance. The programme is designed for highly qualified and motivated students who wish to acquire skills of professional academic research to work in academia, multinational corporations, financial institutions, public or private agencies.
Students conduct their research working closely with professors from the Faculty of Law in a programme designed to meet individual research interests and professional goals. The School maintains working relationships with various departments from the University of Genoa and other universities. Our doctorate students have the opportunity to meet with scholars from a range of academic disciplines.
The Doctorate programme has a wide portfolio of research in the corporate governance area, both in an Italian and an international context. While the programme is designed to specialise students in the fields of corporate governance, it provides them with interdisciplinary knowledge.
Our research topics include the following:
We expect area studies to evolve and grow as the activity of the Centre develops.
The Doctoral programme provides a solid methodology, which is achieved through a wide range of activities, courses, seminars and conferences in Italy and abroad. International renowned professors are invited to give courses on special topics.
It is expected that students will produce research papers publishable in national and international journals. Candidates are offered a number of fellowships, based on certain criteria.
