Overview
Participate in our all but dissertation (ABD) programme and finally finish your dissertation to earn your doctoral degree
Life can change and many events in your personal or professional life can prevent or postpone your graduation with a DBA or PhD in Management degree. According to a recent study by the Council of Graduate Schools, you are not alone and many who left their programme struggle to join another one due to a limited transferability of their credits. With our dissertation completion pathway or all but dissertation programme, we offer a possibility to continue your doctoral studies.
As part of our recognition of prior learning (RPL) policy, our dissertation completion pathway may allow you to transfer credits which you have already earned. We use an Oxford-style teaching and learning method where teaching and learning happens in small groups or one-on-one sessions to focus on your individual needs. Our online course delivery with asynchronous and synchronous elements helps you to schedule your learning flexibly and integrate your studies seamlessly in your private and professional life.
