PhD in Business

Welcome to The Complete Guide to Business PhD Applications

Applying to Business PhD programs is increasingly getting tougher and people from all over the world are vying for the few spots on offer. This wiki aims to make it a little bit easier for most people to get started. Over time we aim to be a comprehensive repository of information for not just future applicants but also for everyone in business academia.

Note however that we are an upcoming wiki, it will take us some time to get this project up and running.

If you are a PhD student, or a faculty member please help us make these pages as complete as possible. Thank you!
