This Professional Doctorate program is designed to offer a qualification equal in rigor and prestige to a PhD, but tailored for professionals rather than academics. The DAg curriculum combines instructional modules with two practical research initiatives, delivered through intensive workshops, remote learning, and a blend of in-person and online mentorship sessions. Though centered on producing sophisticated research, the program's work-based projects allow participants to directly apply insights in their professional environment, ensuring industry relevance. Employer support for both research objectives and time investment is essential. Entrepreneurs should focus on research that directly benefits their business operations.
