PhD in Management
Overview
The WBU School of Business offers three pathways toward a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Management.
- PhD in Management
- PhD in Management with Organizational Leadership specialization
- PhD in Management with Human Resources and Organizational Behavior specialization
The PhD in Management is a unique and comprehensive program that prepares leaders to make a significant impact within their organizations, all while keeping a Christian perspective in mind. This program is a rare opportunity to gain a deep understanding of leadership and management in various sectors, including profit, not-for-profit, military, government, private, and public. It equips leaders to strategize and analyze organizational issues and dilemmas that affect performance and well-being, making them a valuable asset in any organizational structure.
Executive Certificates
Do you want to earn credentials while testing the waters in doctoral studies?
The School of Business also offers two Executive Certificates (Executive Management and Leadership and Executive Human Resource Management and Development). Students who earn certificates and later decide to join a WBU PhD in Management cohort may have these courses transferred into their program of study. Additionally, students currently enrolled in the WBU PhD in Management Program may request an executive certificate at no additional cost once the required courses for each certificate have been completed. Contact the Associate Dean for the form needed to initiate the request.
Bachelor to PhD in Management Program
This program is one of a kind in the marketplace. You will not find another one like it. We designed it for students with a Bachelor’s degree in any discipline. We have designed the program so that in the first year, you would complete the core Master’s level coursework and then move immediately into the PhD in Management curriculum. The program, from start to finish, consists of 81 - 84 credit hours (far less than first completing a separate Master’s degree and then starting a doctoral program) and can be completed in as little as three years.
