The Department of Management, Economics and Quantitative Methods was created in 2012, as a result of the renaming and reorganisation of the earlier Departments of Business Administration, of Economic Studies and of Mathematics, Statistics, Computing and Applications.

The Department is engaged in lively and qualified conference activities. At the same time, the Department is the center of a large scientific production of papers and journal articles. The Department hosts PhD programs (Economics, Applied Mathematics and Operational Research; Marketing for Business Strategies) and Research Centres (CASI - Centre for Statistical Analyses and Survey Interviewing; CREFER - Research Centre on Renewable Energy Sources; ELab - Entrepreneurial Lab, Centre for Research on Entrepreneurship; MatNet - Centre for the Education on Mathematics and Applications).
