The Asper School of Business at the University of Manitoba considers its Ph.D. program fundamental to its academic purpose. Since launching in 1990, we've maintained unwavering dedication to this initiative, anticipating growing demand for Canadian-educated scholars. This AACSB-accredited program has consistently met student and faculty expectations while drawing top-tier candidates eager to enhance their research and instructional capabilities. While modest in size compared to many programs, ours fosters intensive, ongoing interaction between students and professors. Participants receive guidance not just in their academic investigations but also in cultivating teaching expertise. Graduates demonstrate the competencies required for prestigious university appointments. Our Management Ph.D. curriculum equips scholars for academic careers or applied research roles across various sectors. The program's foundational principle recognizes that modern management challenges demand interdisciplinary approaches transcending traditional academic boundaries. This cross-disciplinary framework extends beyond our business school to incorporate complementary fields throughout the university. Candidates must complete a minimum two-year residential requirement, during which they'll develop comprehensive expertise in their specialization and related areas through doctoral coursework at Asper and collaborating university faculties.
