Courses, Doctor of Philosophy of Business Administration, 1 Year(s)

The PhD in business administration grounds students in disciplinary theories and methods and trains them to apply these theories and methods in academic research on important business problems. The program prepares students for a fulfilling career in academia at top business schools and research institutions around the world. The program has five areas of study: accounting and management, management, marketing, strategy, and technology and operations management. Please note we will not be accepting applications for the Management area of study for the 2020-2021 academic year in order to complete a review of the program.

Management is a dynamic field that overlaps with many other business areas and so we strongly encourage applicants interested in Management to also explore Strategy, Technology and Operations Management and the PhD in Organizational Behavior to see if those fields would be an appropriate fit for their research interests. Students in business administration are enrolled in and receive their degree from the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences and work with faculty from both the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and Harvard Business School (HBS).
