Video Transcript
Baris Ata (00:00): When I came here, it felt like, "Now I'm in the major leagues." I realized how high the standards are.
Jane L. Risen (00:09): We're the oldest PhD program within a business school, which is pretty extraordinary to think of sort of how long ago the recognition was there that we wanted to be training not just business leaders in practice, but to be training the future leaders of academic discipline.
Ray Ball (00:26): So I arrived in 1966. Oh, it was marvelous. The place just crackled with ideas and open discussion, and I ended up throwing out all the ideas I came with.
Ann L. McGill (00:35): What I especially liked about learning things here is this is an interdisciplinary school, so you didn't have to dive in a silo. You can wrap your arms around huge areas.
Marianne Bertrand (00:46): What is special is that we are part of a business school, training PhD students across a range of disciplines, not just economics or finance, which we deploy in the Economics Department, but also students are doing psychology, operation research.
Ray Ball (00:59): At Chicago, the ideas were the authorities, not the people, and they were all up for grabs.
Amir Sufi (01:06): What we're trying to create here is people who produce knowledge, not just consume it. And that's the real challenge I think of PhD education.
Ana-Maria Tenekedjieva (01:15): I was never told at any point that, "Oh, this is not real finance. This question is too outside of the box." On the contrary, it was always, "You should do what you want to do, and we're going to think about placement once the paper is ready."
Jane L. Risen (01:32): You don't make any assumptions. You question everything.
Pradeep K. Chintagunta (01:35): It's not enough just to know what other people have done. It's also important to know what needs to be done next. To be able to do that, you need to be able to ask questions beyond the questions that have been asked in the previous literature or in the previous knowledge that's already out there.
Jeffrey R. Russell (01:53): When you're going to seminars here, or watching my colleagues talk in the hallways, you'll often see them in what look like very contentious battles. But really, they're just after, "What's the right answer?" When PhD students come here, they are able to sort of bring that into their own souls, and I think that really pushes them then to sort of be the best possible researcher that they can.
Ana-Maria Tenekedjieva (02:12): Chicago Booth is known for its quite aggressive questioning style. I think that we get a little bit of a bad rap. There is a point to the aggressive questioning, and it is to clarify the idea. In Chicago Booth the spirit is be tough on the idea, not on the person.
Amir Sufi (02:30): Throughout the world, we're appreciating more and more how influential research can be. I think our PhD students going forward will increasingly be placed in positions, both in scholarship and in government and in business, where they can have major influence.
Ray Ball (02:48): So the fact that this is the oldest doctoral program in business, that it has been going for 100 years, gives some indication of the commitment of this school to training people. We still have those same values, and so it's always going to generate people who change the world, who change the way we think. I can't tell you at this point how that will happen. That's exactly the idea. New people come in with new ideas, and they learn how to implement them in the school, and they change the way we think about the world. And that's going to keep going.
The Stevens Program is highly competitive—and highly rewarding. Approximately 20–25 new PhD students matriculate each fall from an applicant pool of more than 1,000, and our graduates are highly sought after at the world's most elite institutions of higher learning, in government, and at leading global businesses.

Just a moment while we process your submission.
The MBA has long been considered the standard for business professionals at the management or executive level. But as more and more leaders hold MBAs, they aren’t the differentiator they used to be. As business challenges grow more complex, technology rapidly advances and consumer behaviors change, a doctorate in business is an investment many business leaders are making to elevate their skills.
If you have C-suite aspirations, want to increase your salary, and gain research skills that can deliver a competitive advantage for your organization, a doctorate degree in business can help you achieve your goals. But how do you find the right business doctorate program for you? First, you need to understand there are two major types of doctoral programs in business—academic, theoretical Ph.D. programs and professional, applied doctorate programs. And, to make it more complex, there are multiple degrees for business professionals within each category. That’s why we want to make your options clear. Let’s explore in more detail so you can confidently make a decision on which doctorate in business program is right for you.
The answer to this question really lies in your professional aspirations. In short, it boils down to a simple question: Do you want to spend your career teaching business leaders or leading businesses to grow? Why Earn a Theoretical Doctorate In Business? Theoretical doctorates are Ph.D.’s. If you want to spend your career as a business professor, or in a research capacity to support businesses, a Ph.D. in business is likely the best choice. Ph.D programs focus heavily on academic research.
Why Earn a Professional Doctorate In Business? These are sometimes called an Applied Doctorate. This type of business doctorate focuses on applying research and business theory to solve real-world business challenges. If you want to spend your career leading a business, or consulting businesses, this is likely the direction for you. It should be noted that both programs are very research-intensive. After all, a doctorate is the highest level of educational achievement you can receive. The difference is the focus of that research. “A doctorate is not like another master’s degree,” comments Dr. Tim Reymann, Program Chair, Doctor of Business Administration at Franklin University , “It requires even more reading, writing and research than any other degree you’ve earned. Make sure you do a significant amount of reflection on what you need to be successful. I tell students to look for a degree you’re passionate about, knowledgeable and engaged faculty and an institution that builds a support system for it’s doctoral students.”
Here are many doctoral programs aimed at helping business leaders succeed. Here are three of the leading choices—and who is the ideal fit for each. Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) This is a professional doctorate designed to help leaders create transformational change through advanced research, analytical, and leadership skills. “DBA degrees are geared toward working professionals who want to practically apply their degree,” says Dr. Reymann, “They usually work in the corporate sector and want to advance in management at their organization, or want to teach applied business theory at a university.” Through earning a DBA, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of key business dynamics like global economics, government regulation, technological advancements and an increasingly dynamic workforce. With these research skills and new knowledge, you will be able to recognize business opportunities, generate innovative solutions, and confidently lead a team or organization, or pursue a role as a faculty member teaching these subjects. Ph.D. in Business Administration This is a theoretical degree designed to prepare individuals to provide unique research to the business field or teach within an academic setting. “Most individuals looking to get a Ph.D. are looking for a faculty position at a tier-one or tier-two university where they can teach on a full-time basis and perform original research,” says Dr. Reymann. Rapid advancement of technology and evolution of business environments presents many opportunities for the rigorous research that a Ph.D. in Business Administration can provide. Doctor of Education in Organizational Leadership (Ed.D) An Ed.D. is an applied doctorate designed to prepare individuals for administration and management within the education field. “Ed.D. programs apply management principles to the education field,” says Dr. Reymann. “These programs are a great fit for individuals who want to hold a management or leadership position in education—like principals, superintendents, and university administrators.” Through earning an Ed.D., you’ll learn how to apply cutting-edge educational theories and apply them to the challenges within an educational system to create real change—whether improving schools or increasing access to educational opportunities.
Choosing the right type of degree is a highly personal and significantly important decision. It will have an impact on your education experience and your career opportunities. As you research degrees and institutions, make sure you are choosing the right degree to empower your future. Here are five key questions to help you find the program that works best for you:
So, you’ve chosen a degree. Great! Earning that doctoral degree will be an intensive process. When choosing a doctoral business program, you should find a student-centered program that will offer you support through the entire process. Here’s what to ask to find a program that works best for you: What type of educational experience am I looking for?
There are three instruction methods in doctoral programs: in-person, online and hybrid, which is a combination of in-person and online. When choosing the right one for you, flexibility is usually the determining factor. Most in-person programs are full-time, which limits your ability to keep your job while getting your degree. Online programs allow you to complete a degree on your schedule, so you don’t have to put your career on pause. Hybrid programs, on the other hand, may be right for professionals who choose an online program with a local campus. What type of support will I need to be successful?
Some doctoral programs can feel like solitary experiences, especially if they’re completed online. But if you’re looking for high-levels of support, the right online program will deliver. From faculty advisors to personal librarians and collaborative learning experiences, a supportive program will put you in touch with the right people and resources at every step of your doctoral degree. How much flexibility will I need to balance my personal, professional, and educational pursuits?
Make sure you choose a program that offers the right balance of flexibility and structured learning . You want flexibility in the number of courses you take, when you complete coursework and how you conduct research. Structure should come in how courses are taught and a step-by-step dissertation process that removes roadblocks and sets you up for success. “At Franklin University, every doctoral student receives a faculty advisor,” comments Dr. Reymann. “They check in with students at least once a month to talk about their progress, answer questions, and help clear roadblocks. Even with an online program, we believe in being highly engaged and creating one-on-one relationships with students.”
Only 2% of professionals complete a doctoral degree, so pursuing a terminal degree is inherently challenging and extremely rewarding. Explore Franklin University's Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) and Doctor of Education in Organizational Leadership (Ed.D.) to see how our flexible, student-centered programs can help you successfully achieve a doctoral business degree that gives you the skills you need to lead.

Students in the program are expected to master graduate-level microeconomic theory and econometrics. In addition, they are expected to devote substantial time to mastering one additional complementary discipline, such as psychology, sociology, or political science, and developing expertise in research methodologies suited to their particular interests, such as qualitative analysis, designing effective fieldwork, and analysis of survey data.
Students in the Strategy doctoral program work closely with faculty in the Strategy Unit. In addition to the doctoral program in Strategy, the Strategy unit offers a program in Business Economics , which is designed to attract students interested in pursuing research using a purely economics-based methodology.
Our programs are full-time degree programs which officially begin in August. Students are expected to complete their program in five years. Typically, the first two years are spent on coursework, at the end of which students take a field exam, and then another three years on dissertation research and writing.
