Overview

The primary goal of the marketing doctoral program is to train academics for placements at AACSB-accredited peer institutions (preferably with a doctoral program of their own) throughout the United States and abroad. Those with a completed master’s degree in a business discipline can complete the doctorate in four years of full-time resident study.

Features

The Marketing program at Washington State University encompasses a variety of formal and informal interactions and projects with faculty and others, as well as course work, comprehensive exams, and dissertation research.

It enables students to develop substantial competencies in the theory, practice, and research methodology essential to the advancement of marketing knowledge, while accommodating individual backgrounds, experiences, and objectives.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

Course work covers topics associated with the scholarly pursuit of marketing as well as topics from supporting fields of inquiry such as psychology, sociology, and management.

Extensive coverage of research methods and statistics associated with the social sciences also is a large component of the program.

In addition to specific coursework, the marketing doctoral program also provides an environment in which students can develop research competencies in close association with the marketing faculty and other graduate students.

Other requirements

General requirements

A minimum admissions index score of 1250 is required to be considered for admission. The index is based on the formula GPA x 200 + GMAT (and a TOEFL of 580 for ESL students). There is not a minimum GMAT score requirement. However, successful candidates typically exceed 650.

We prefer the GMAT, but we do accept the GRE test as a substitute. In either case, the exam must have been taken within 5 years of the time of application to WSU. A GMAT conversion will be applied to the GRE score submitted by applicants who take the GRE in lieu of the GMAT.

The Educational Testing Service (ETS) provides a conversion chart. The converted GRE score will then be applied to the Carson College of Business admissions index score in the same manner as a standard GMAT score.
