The International PhD in Business Administration is aimed at professionals in business or public administration with several years of experience in their field, but not necessarily in research or education. The program combines the advantages of contact-based and distance-based education, drawing on the contribution of recognized national and international experts. In its design, the program combines two major international traditions in doctoral education such as the American tradition (where several years of formal education is needed to get the Ph.D.) and the European tradition (with a usually limited number of classes and a strong emphasis on independent dissertation research).

The Doctorate in Business Administration is a terminal degree for senior professionals, entrepreneurs, and business leaders who wish to combine advanced academic research with real-world executive practice. It focuses on applied research, allowing students to solve complex business problems.

This programme provides a theoretical basis and practical analysis of international business. A research thesis should address the global environment in which the business operates, as well as the process of business preparation and market entry, strategy and operations.

Offered in collaboration with the prestigious Swiss School of Business and Management Geneva (SSBM Geneva), our Dual Degree DBA focuses on areas deeply connected to the dynamics of international business and leadership, designed for ambitious executives, senior professionals, and decision-makers.
