| The Sprott PhD in Management is centred on applied research on complex management problems in an interdisciplinary context. We teach the skills to address complex management issues by taking a system-level approach and by drawing upon resources and ideas from multiple functional areas. Our program offers a number of interdisciplinary, issue-focused courses that provide a holistic perspective to defining and solving problems. At the same time, you are able to ground your learning and research in selected functional areas. We offer integrative courses not commonly found in other PhD programs focusing on interconnections between disparate phenomena. |

| Additional Admission Requirements: | Admission into the Ph.D. Management program will be judged primarily on the applicant's ability to undertake research successfully and his/her prospects for completion of the program. The normal requirement for admission to the doctoral program in management is a master's degree (or equivalent) in business or a related field with an A- average and a bachelor's degree. A number of years of work experience is desirable. A student enrolled in a research-based master's program in business who has completed a minimum of 2.5 credits and who has shown outstanding academic performance and research promise may be admitted to the Ph.D. program without completing the master's program. Normal Ph.D. program requirements, as stated below, will apply. Each case will be considered on an individual basis for advanced standing in the Ph.D. program. Advanced standing will be considered for a maximum of 1.5 credits. Applicants who have completed a thesis-based master's program in business or a related area may have their program requirements adjusted at the time of admission, as set out below.
All Ph.D. candidates, regardless of their previous field of specialization, are expected to have or to acquire a basic knowledge of statistics and at least two of the following areas of management: accounting, finance, information systems, international business, management science, marketing, organizational behaviour, and productions/operations management. Students will be admitted to the program with a course of study designed where appropriate to supplement previous education, experience, and training. |
