Un programme doctoral articulé selon le modèle des grandes universités européennes et américaines

Avec deux années de cours doctoraux avancés et deux années (ou trois) de recherche à plein temps.

1ère année

La "voie doctorale" du Master 2 ETE permet aux étudiants d’acquérir des bases solides et avancées en théorie économique (Micro, Macro et Econométrie) avant de choisir leur domaine spécifique de recherche. Pendant cette année, les étudiants sont aussi formés aux méthodes de la recherche et ils doivent rédiger, sous la direction d’un tuteur membre du corps professoral, un mémoire de master qui sera évalué par un jury de professeurs lors d’une présentation orale.

2ème année

C’est l’ultime année de cours doctoraux avancés Diplôme d’économie approfondie et recherche (MRes). Les doctorants doivent choisir sept sujets dans la liste des cours spécialisés offerts, suivre un groupe de travail annuel dans leur domaine de recherche. 
Cette formation intensive à la recherche et par la recherche procure aux doctorants une solide fondation pour l’écriture de leurs papiers de recherche et leur future carrière de chercheurs. Ils sont assistés, dans leurs choix, par leur directeur de thèse et un autre professeur.
Durant cette deuxième année, les étudiants peuvent choisir leur spécialité de recherche : 

• Behavioral and Experimental Economics
• Econometrics and Empirical Economics
• Economics Theory
• Finance
• Industrial Organization
• Macroeconomics
• Public Policy and Applied Economics

A la fin de l’année de DEAR les doctorants doivent présenter devant un jury de professeurs l’état d’avancement de leurs travaux de recherche.

Années de Thèse

Pendant les 2 ou 3 années suivantes, les étudiants se consacrent à l’écriture de leur thèse à temps plein. C’est l’occasion pour eux de mûrir leur intuition et leur technique d’économiste. Les “thésards” sont partie intégrante du pôle de recherche en économie de TSE et assistent ou interviennent dans le cadre des séminaires. Ils présentent leur travail de recherche lors de séminaires juniors et des conférences internationales et sont incités à participer à des écoles d’été spécialisées. Enfin, le doctorat est attribué après soutenance publique de la thèse qui doit contenir au moins 3 articles publiables (évalués  préalablement par deux rapporteurs extérieurs).  

Il faut généralement 5 ans pour que les étudiants terminent leur thèse.

Nos doctorants témoignent

"TSE is an amazing place for students who want to devote themselves into research. The professors here are very productive and nice. Their love to economics is so contagious. There are so many conferences, seminars, and workshops in diversified areas that could feed your interests and tastes. The quality and quantity of those meetings are fabulous. Overall, our PhD program in terms of its research environment is comparable to the top-ten programs in the US. The life at Toulouse is also very rewarding. You would meet many interesting persons here. International students' background are diversified and they come from five continents. I love here so much and miss the people I met here. You would never regret if you choose to come to TSE."

Nina Yin, Assistant Professor (China Center for Human Capital and Labor Market Research, Central University of Finance and Economics, Beijing, China)

"Learning how to become a researcher is not an easy task and TSE's structure in thematic groups played an important part in helping me develop research skills. Every week, we had a macro seminar with external speakers, a macro workshop for PhD students to present their work and a macro reading group where we discussed recently published papers !
When you present your work, comments from professors and fellow students can be tough to hear, but that's how make progress and learn how not to cut corners.
Overall, the environment at TSE showed me a passion for intellectual challenges that was contagious. I felt encouraged to play my part and contribute, as an economic researcher, to a better understanding of the forces driving our economic system."

François de Soyres, Economist (World Bank)

"TSE gave me an outstanding training in econometrics which was crucial for the beginning of my career. I believe that the scientific environment at TSE is comparable to the best economics departments in the world. Just look at the amount and quality of seminars, workshops, and conferences hosted at TSE each year and compare it to any other top economics department. There are more events than you can digest!"

Andrii Babii, Assistant professor, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

"I enjoyed the diversity and academic environment here. Students and researchers are coming from all over the world and doing research in various fields, each contributing in a unique way to the diverse culture here. The research environment is of first grand; each year, top researchers around the world visit and give talks at Toulouse, giving us plenty of opportunities to be exposed to the research frontier. The researchers/advisors are really great economists and patient teachers; discussions on our work are usually deep and focusing on the big picture and economic applications, which I find are the most important part of economics research. Of course, the city is truly beautiful!

Some deals are too good to be true but TSE defies this adage. One gets to live in a great city and have access to one of the best economics departments. TSE has a big PHD program with roughly 20 incoming students each year, which makes you feel like a part of the community. I was part of the Macro group and learned a lot through interactions with the faculty members and other students. And this interaction was not just limited to internal members as the PhD students interact a lot with the visiting seminar speakers (and there are a lot of them at TSE!!).

In terms of the timeline, one spends the first two years on coursework. The core courses are interesting and give a good foundation for research, both in terms of material covered as well as to develop research agenda. I got good support from my advisor as well as other faculty members to keep my work on track throughout the PhD. For the job market, TSE has a professional team of people, comprising of staff members and faculty, who help you throughout the job market season. The hard work that TSE puts in to prepare its students is amply reflected in the placements!!"

Shekhar Tomar, Research Officer, Reserve bank of India

"TSE is a very good environment for research. Besides the faculty helping students, much administrative hassle is kept away from students to be able to better focus. In any given week there are more research seminars than one can even attend, so one is exposed to many different ideas. Throughout my time at TSE I enjoyed substantial financial support, both for my living expenses as well as for accessing data"

 

Markus Gebauer, Assistant Professor of Economics (International College of Economics and Finance, National Research University - Higher School of Economics Moscow, Russia)

"I did my Ph.D. at TSE from 2011 until 2016 (plus a strong M1 a year prior). Coming from Peru to Europe for the first time, a lot was new, exciting, and different. Language-wise, for instance, classes were in English, while daily life was in French. To make this harder, coursework at TSE is tough and exams are intense. However, I can say with the benefit of hindsight, that such level of rigor makes TSE alumni well equipped to face the challenges of a dynamic world. At TSE, I learned to always stay curious, and to study seriously and committed to the subject at hand. After the Ph.D. I came to the U.S. to work in consulting. My adviser and other faculty members were always supportive of my choice and were instrumental for me finding a job in Washington, D.C. There, I have confirmed that TSE enjoys an outstanding reputation in economics, especially in IO. All in all, my years in Toulouse were some of the best in my life, I am deeply thankful to the school, the administrative staff, the faculty, and my friends!"

Rodrigo Montes, Senior Economist, Compass Lexecon
