The doctoral program “The Economics of Innovative Change” offers the opportunity to achieve a doctoral degree (PhD) in economics to top level graduated students. The program is under the auspices of the Department of Economics of the Friedrich Schiller University of Jena and the Max Planck Institute of Economics, Jena.

The program addresses questions and problems concerning the economic dynamics of firms, markets, sectors and regions with an analytical focus on the endogenous driving forces mainly understood as the activities of invention and innovation. Among the range of topics are the behavioural and organizational foundations of inventive and innovative activities, their effects on sectoral and regional structures combined especially with demand side considerations as well as the political management of change. For analysing those topics theoretical and empirical approaches as well as experimental studies are welcome.
