DBA / Doctorate (Online)

The objective of this DBA in Business Administration is to provide participants with the opportunity to make a significant contribution to both theory and practice in the field while developing professional expertise at the highest level.

This is a practical, research-based doctoral program in business and industry, designed for mid-career executives who have already completed an MBA (or an equivalent qualification) and seek to deepen their practical and theoretical knowledge in the field.

This pathway requires students to submit a dissertation (thesis) and defend it at the end of their DBA program.

Regarding doctoral thesis supervision, it is important to note that the DBA thesis supervisor typically reviews the scientific work prepared by the student, provides guidance, and ensures that quality standards are met.

The thesis supervisor is an individual with the academic qualifications and professional experience required in the chosen research field. They have in-depth knowledge of the subject area in which the student is conducting research.

The supervisor’s role is to guide the DBA student from the beginning of the research through to the oral presentation and final defense of the completed dissertation (DBA viva).

The total duration to complete the DBA program is two (2) academic years or less, depending on the student’s motivation and readiness to submit the thesis.

The DBA program allows you to earn the highest postgraduate degree in business and management without interrupting your career.

The DBA thesis track offers a rigorous online or blended learning and research plan in an international environment. All DBA students have the opportunity to attend on-campus seminars organized in Paris.

This program is designed for professionals and senior executives, providing them with a practical foundation in higher business education, research, and its applications, through a flexible and research-driven curriculum.

The DBA doctoral program includes a thesis research project that focuses on applied research, helping you address real-world challenges within your organization. Our distinguished faculty will support you throughout your DBA journey, providing key milestones to keep you on track.
