PhD Program Management

Admission

In order to enroll into the program, you need to file an application with the Admissions Office. Students with a master or diploma degree from our Faculty (e.g. Diploma in International Economics and Business Studies (IWW), Master in Banking and Finance, etc.) will automatically get their application approved. All other applications will be assessed in terms of the qualifications that you acquired in your previous degree. In particular, we expect sufficient coverage of management subjects and research-related courses in your qualifying degree. Please reckon with a few weeks processing time for your application.

When applying for admission, you will be asked to submit information about your (prospective) PhD project. Please note that this serves an informational purpose only. It is not part of the assessment when judging admission eligibility. It is also not an admission requirement to gain the support of a prospective (main) supervisor prior to enrolling into our program.

What we recommend is that you start your PhD studies with an idea about the field in which you want to do your research (e.g., strategic management, marketing, information systems, etc.) and that you inform yourself about the research that our faculty is conducting, so as to get an idea of which "research team" you could join.
