This workshop builds on the MMOBE program (Master in Management, Organization and Business Economics) and the DEMO PhD program (Doctorate in Economics Management and Organisation). The Master in Management, Organization and Business Economics offers specialised and advanced training in the field of business research to initiate in business research and its relevant dimensions, offering an analytical focus of the managerial decisions and problems that affect businesses. The Doctorate in Economics Management and Organisation is a rigorous and internationally competitive PhD program for training high quality and publishable research in science based approaches to management of organisations.
The Master and PhD programs pool the efforts of the Department of Business Economics at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, the Department of Business Economics at Universitat de les Illes Balears and the Department of Business Management at the Universidad Pública de Navarra.
The workshop deals with business research questions from the perspective of economics. The topics cover key issues of the economics of the firm as corporate strategy, corporate governance, human resource management or innovation activities, to mention some of them.
This year, the main lecture is given by professor Don Lange, from Arizona State University. In addition to professors and students of the DEMO PhD. Program, this year we have the participation in the workshop of professors and Ph. D. students from Passau University.
