The Aston Executive Doctorate (DBA)

The Aston Executive Doctorate (DBA)

Aston Business School aims to continually develop new ideas for business success. We do this by learning with business through sharing challenges, knowledge and insights
together. The Aston Executive Doctorate embodies those principles perfectly.

Executive Doctorate researchers develop their intellectual, business and research expertise to the highest levels by working with world-leading academics in a challenging and supportive research community. Our intent is that they graduate as knowledge leaders in their areas with a powerful practical knowledge and skill base that enables them to make a difference to their organisations.

The Aston Executive Doctorate offers an opportunity for leaders to work at the interface of advanced research and business to ensure unique and powerful breakthroughs in understanding how we can develop effective organisations.

It is an exciting and demanding journey of personal transformation that at the same time enables business success.

History of Astons DBA
