Program Description
PhD in Business Administration - Strategy and Entrepreneurship
This program is designed to prepare candidates committed to conducting rigorous research, but also to addressing questions that have significant implications for firms and markets. The field of Strategic Management & Entrepreneurship (SM&E) deals with the creation, growth, transformation and performance of firms and industries, and investigates the effectiveness of various attributes and actions of an organization and its top management teams in order to gain competitive advantage and achieve organizational goals. The interdisciplinary nature of the field also implies that doctoral research typically draws on concepts and theories from economics, sociology and psychology, and addresses a wide variety of topics that have direct or indirect implications for organizational effectiveness. By the end program, the candidates should be able to conduct high-level research as well as find academic placements at top universities.
