About us
Doctoral students who choose business administration can select from a number of areas of emphasis:

Note: Organizational Behavior/Human Resources, Strategy/Entrepreneurship, International Business and Logistics will not be accepting applications for Fall 2025.
The program consists of three phases of study and a series of evaluations:
- Develop competency in the functional areas of business
- Develop competency in the major, minor and research tools areas (statistics and econometrics).
- Work on the dissertation.
A series of formal evaluations measures progress in the program and provides students with appropriate feedback. Most PhD courses follow a seminar format, in which students read and discuss contemporary research in an informal classroom setting. Courses in minor area and research tools may follow regular classroom format.
