Anna Part-Time PhD in Management

The Part-Time PhD in Management offered by Anna University provides working professionals and academics the opportunity for doctoral research in management without sacrificing their careers. The format of the program is set up to provide flexibility and necessary rigor to all types of management fields, including marketing, finance, HR, strategy, operations, and entrepreneurship.

Candidates should have an MBA or a postgraduate diploma in management from a recognized institution, such as an Indian Institute of Management, or M.S. By Research in Management Sciences. Candidates generally need a minimum of 55% marks in a qualifying degree, and reserved category candidates (SC/ST/differently abled) need a minimum of 50% marks. Part-time registration is available for teachers in university departments, affiliated colleges, and polytechnics, and for professionals in recognized research laboratories, government or private industrial units, and R&D departments having collaborative arrangements with Anna University.

The program incorporates coursework as well as the development of an original research project. The coursework, which typically will be taken over a weekend or evening, will include advanced business management, research methods, processes, and techniques, quantitative techniques, and other advanced management topics, and should normally be finished over a 1-2-year period. The pilot coursework subject and assessment form part of the coursework academic field experiences, which are designed to ensure a solid research foundation. The transition from coursework to the research phase will occur only when you have successfully finished your coursework and passed your qualifying exams, not before.

During the initial stages of the research, candidates will discuss their topic and literature review with an approved supervisor. In the data collection and analysis stages of research development, the learning experience reaches its full potential, and writing the thesis can be a significant portfolio experience. Regularly scheduled meetings between you and your supervisor and the Doctoral Committee will ensure academic development. The minimum degree time is four full years, and part-time scholars will need to complete the degree within six years.

However, if you are someone who wants to grab the highest-paying job, then you can opt for the online DBA(Doctor of Business Administration). This course is equivalent to a Phd and is especially designed for working professionals. An online DBA (Doctor of Business Administration) can have many advantages for working professionals who want to advance their careers while maintaining their current work schedules' flexibility and speed, and who want to network and have the opportunity to build rapport with people from around the world.
