AACSB Report


The AACSB has made it clear that innovation and its social impact is the only way forward for doctoral business education. Doctoral programs have already embraced innovative practices in problem framing and data analysis to enhance the value students receive for their journey into their newfound career pathway; be it academia or industry. An innovative doctoral education is the key that opens the door to this journey, which is just the beginning. There are other important stakeholders in this life-long journey.

As the first event of its kind, the Conference on Advances in Business Doctoral Education explores how business schools can preserve the established strengths of doctoral education while embracing new technologies and practices to plot a course for the future. Sessions will examine the impact of innovation on all stakeholders, including schools, faculty, students, and industry.
