"IF WE COULD FIRST LEARN WHERE WE ARE AND WHERE WE ARE GOING, WE WOULD BE BETTER ABLE TO JUDGE WHAT TO DO AND HOW TO DO IT."

ABRAHAM LINCOLN

Doctor of Business Administration (DBA, PhD)

School of Business and Economics
Atlantic International University

 
The Doctor of Business Administration (DBA, PhD) program is designed to advance the professional development of experienced managers and professionals in the business arena by extending their management knowledge and equipping them with broad research and process management skills, enabling them to make a key leadership contribution to their chosen fields. The Doctor of Business Administration degree is geared for those who seek to contribute to the improvement of an organization’s overall performance in today’s highly competitive business world.

AIU’s Doctorate degree in Business Administration goes one step further by allowing students to study and research multiple key areas of business and management to develop a unique foundation of practical knowledge and business theory. The program is also offered as a PhD in Business Administration.

Your AIU Distance Learning Doctorate program in Business Administration will be a custom-made program, designed just for you by you and your advisor. This flexibility to meet your needs is seldom found in other distance learning programs. Our program does not require every student to study the same subjects and use the same books and other learning materials as every other student. Instead our online Doctoral programs are designed just for you. They are individually designed to meet your needs and help you to reach your professional and personal goals.
