The Department of Economics, Management and Quantitative Methods (DEMM) seeks expressions of interest for post-doctoral positions (2+2 years), expected to be formally open by the end of 2018, from candidates interested in working with us in the broad areas of Economics, Management and Statistics.

The University of Milan is a major research and teaching institution located in one of Europe’s most thriving cities. It is ranked in the top 200 for Economics in the Shanghai Ranking of World Universities. According to RepEc, the Department of Economics, Management, and Quantitative Methods – DEMM is one of the top five departments of economics in Italy and in the top four percent in Europe. The recent Italian research evaluation exercise (VQR 2011-2014) placed DEMM among the top 10 departments in the area of economics, management and statistics in Italy.

DEMM has also been the recipient of a generous competitive funding in the recent “Bando Dipartimenti di Eccellenza” grant, awarded by the Italian ministry of education (MIUR) and aimed at creating the Centre of Excellence in Economics and Data Science (CEEDS).

Particular attention will be given to candidates with an promising research record and showing the potential to cooperate with the current members of the department in pursuing DEMM’s strategy.
