Original research at the frontier of management science

The PhD in Business Administration prepares scholars for careers in academia, think tanks, and senior policy roles. After completing doctoral coursework in research methods and advanced theory, you will develop an original dissertation contributing new knowledge to your field. Brigant faculty specialise in sustainable finance, digital transformation, emerging-market strategy, and organisational resilience. You will present at our annual research symposium and publish in peer-reviewed outlets with supervisory support.
