Studies in strategic management and international business have progressively aligned. The field of strategic management now frequently employs large-scale organizational studies, often incorporating multinational corporations. Moreover, the traditional concentration on local competitors has shifted toward analyzing worldwide competition and international strategies. The PhD program in Strategy and International Business was established to address these evolving trends. Faculty specializing in Strategy and International Business primarily conduct research bridging these two disciplines.
This doctoral program centers on academic investigation into strategic management and international business topics, along with their intersections. Hosted by the Department of Management, the curriculum explores subjects such as corporate strategy, governance structures, multinational firm management, global market entry approaches, collaborative partnerships, and strategic practices in developing markets.
The program prioritizes early research engagement for doctoral candidates. Participants collaborate with faculty mentors on active research initiatives, fostering rapid development of research skills and independent project formulation. Through close faculty guidance, students also cultivate teaching expertise by instructing undergraduate courses.
