Reaching a senior position in business does not necessarily mean that learning stops. For experienced managers, executives, consultants and entrepreneurs, doctoral study can provide an opportunity to move beyond applying existing business knowledge and begin contributing new knowledge through advanced research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A PhD in business administration<\/strong> or business management typically focuses on original research into organisations, leadership, strategy, management and related business challenges. At this level, candidates are expected to investigate complex questions systematically and produce research that contributes meaningfully to their field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For professionals considering doctoral business study in South Africa, it is also important to understand that a PhD is not the only doctoral pathway available.
