Introduction
Greater global and regional competition is increasing the pressure on organizations and individuals alike to add value to their services by broadening and deepening their knowledge and understanding. Maastricht School of Management has responded to this need with our Doctoral Programs, each seeking to expose you to inter-disciplinary management problems to help you develop a more global vision and understanding. Both the DBA and PhD programs are characterized by depth through dissertation research and breadth through comprehensive assessments of business functions.
PhD
Our PhD Program is conducted as an MSM–University joint Doctoral Program. Among our collaborating partners are Dutch universities such as the University of Maastricht, the Open University of the Netherlands, the Universities of Twente, Wageningen, Eindhoven and Tilburg. The PhD Degree is conferred by the collaborating university. PhD research is more theoretical and different in purpose to DBA research. Professors from the Maastricht School of Management and the collaborating university jointly supervise participants.
