Our faculty places strong emphasis on outstanding research and scholarship. Through its educational and research objectives, the University of Zurich aims at attracting leading inter-national researchers who are willing to contribute to its development and to strengthening its reputation.

The main research focus of the professorship will be the study of the process of globalization and role of emerging markets in the new international order from both a theoretical and an empirical perspective.
