About

Visit programme website for more information

Overview

The Doctorate of Business Administration at Clermont School of Business  is designed around three core objectives :

  • Firstly, an academic ambition , since the aim for the School and its partners is to bring DBA participants, professionals and students, fully into research in Management Sciences and in an international context.
  • Secondly, there is a scientific ambition , since this program aims to bring together major theories in management science and business practices, and to enable, through appropriate support, monitoring and research framework, the conduct of research that directly concerns the professional activity of the participants and the problems of their organization.
  • An ambition for educational commitment that Clermont School of Business shares with its partners: that of higher education actors who are positioning themselves on the international stage and of populations who wish to access very high-level training recognized worldwide.

This program is therefore an optimistic bet on a richer and more fruitful future for management science and all its new players . This is based particularly on one of the key features of the DBA at Clermont School of Business: a carefully considered and controlled balance between the imperative of rigor and the need for relevance in management research. We invite you to discover this promise in detail here.
