At an individual level, the Executive DBA is a professional doctorate for business leaders, which means it provides access to the highest level of academic qualification. At a company level, the programme equips senior managers with high-level analytical and problem-solving skills to drive transformational change within their organisations.

This is a hybrid part-time learning programme, combining online modules with on-campus residencies during the first two years, to allow working professionals to study while fulfilling their job obligations.

The Executive DBA expands the traditional support from an expert supervisor, with Doctoral Development Plan modules aimed at strengthening the students' research capabilities, so they are able to deploy these skills during their thesis workplan and after graduation.
