Program details

Overview

The Doctor of Business Administration emphasizes the practical use of advanced business ideas. It is fully online and follows a cohort model, with students taking a limited course load each semester. The program starts with foundational business courses, and applicants holding an MBA or related master's degree may transfer some equivalent coursework. A core component links theory to current market challenges, and marketing, management and business analytics concentrations let students tailor their studies. Four research courses prepare students for applied research, and a block of dissertation credit has students work with a committee on practical business problems. Admission considers work experience, grades, a writing sample and a reference check. Further details, including how to apply and whom to contact, are published on the official program page, which applicants are encouraged to read before submitting an application.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Evaluation of DBA application, previous work experience, undergraduate and graduate GPA (MBA or business-related master's), writing sample and reference check.
