Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA)
This course (Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA)) is for executives able to engage in major projects inside their employing organisations. It benefits you, makes a contribution to knowledge, and can significantly develop your organisation.
The DBA is a structured route to doctoral level achievement, with four modules before the research phase. You achieve an understanding and perception of managerial work that cannot be attained by other means.
The initial modular element lasts 18 months, after which you present your formal research plan. You then enter the research phase, which takes a further eighteen months (minimum).
Your extended research investigation must focus on a topic of importance to both you and your organisation. At its conclusion, you present and defend a thesis in viva voce. DBA students achieve the standards demanded for all doctoral-level work.
DBA classes are limited to between 10 and 20 participants who benefit from our focus on their development and the collaborative learning environment.
Collaborative learning ensures you have many opportunities to benefit from the experiences of others – and to share your own.
