Summary

The University of Bradford Executive Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) is the pinnacle of management education.

The programme is as academically rigorous as a PhD, but is specifically designed for executives, professionals and senior managers who seek to combine the best of academic knowledge with the best of practitioner knowledge in order to push forward the boundaries of understanding contemporary and rapidly transforming business and management challenges.

The Executive DBA provides advanced research methods training through a suite of four specifically designed taught modules delivered by leading scholars to equip students to undertake independent empirical research on contemporary business/management challenges and to develop new knowledge and understandings.

Students will be supervised by leading research-active academics who regularly publish in international journals and present at prestigious conferences.

DBA students will have opportunities to present their research at the Annual Doctoral Conference at the Faculty of Management, Law and Social Sciences. They will also have the opportunity to give guest lectures on their research and/or managerial expertise as part of the International Guest Lecture Series. DBA students can also publish their research in academic and practitioner journals.

We also have 3 Peer Review Workshops per year where DBA students present their research to colleagues and academics, and mock vivas in order to fully prepare DBA students for the viva examination.

Professional Accreditation We are proud to be in an elite group of business schools to hold the triple accreditations of Equis, AMBA and AACSB, often referred to as the "Triple Crown".

Rankings The Bradford Doctorate in Business Administration (DBA) is one of only 26 DBA programmes in the world and one of five in the UK to be listed by CEO Magazine, based on accreditation, quality of faculty, geography and international standing.
