Doctorate in Philosophy Management

The Doctorate in Philosophy in Management is offered by the University of Ottawa's Telfer School of Management on a full-time basis, in one of five fields: Accounting and Control, Entrepreneurship, Finance, Health Systems, or Organizational Behavior and Human Resources, Strategy and Organization. The program trains researchers to contribute to academic excellence and to influence change in society through rigorous academic, applied and policy research in management. Admission requires a master's degree with a thesis in a relevant discipline, completed with an admission average of at least 8.0 (A-) calculated according to graduate studies regulations. Non-native English speakers must provide a TOEFL score of at least 100, an IELTS score of at least 7 in three of the four test components, or proof of a previous degree completed within the last five years at an English-language university. Applicants must also supply two referees, a curriculum vitae, a statement of intent of 800 to 1,000 words, GMAT or GRE results, and a writing sample of 10 to 15 pages, and must identify a Telfer faculty member whose research interests align with their own. Applications are accepted for the Fall term only, and the program is normally completed within four years.
