Dear Colleague,
I’m writing to inform you about a potential opportunity and to ask for your assistance. The PhD program in Business Administration and Management (BA&M) at Bocconi University is looking for applicants with exceptional academic credentials and the drive to excel at scholarly research in the areas of strategy, technology, organization, marketing and accounting.
- Why Bocconi University?
Bocconi’s PhD in BA&M is a 4-year full-time program that offers training in a variety of disciplines related to management studies and emphasizes the skills necessary to integrate different approaches and develop coherent and cutting-edge research. We provide a collaborative, supportive and intellectually stimulating research environment for discovery and dissemination of scientific knowledge applicable to the business community. Students will develop the theoretical and methodological skills required to participate and publish at the highest standards of the international scientific community.
- Our faculty
Faculty members are leading scholars in their fields. They contribute to the international debate by publishing in and serving the editorial board of leading research journals, such as: Academy of Management Journal, Strategic Management Journal, Organization Science, Management Science, Academy of Management Review, Journal of Marketing, Journal of Marketing Research, Journal of Consumer Research, Marketing Science, Review of Accounting Studies, Accounting Organizations and Society, European Accounting Review, and many others. Visiting professors from top international schools complement our permanent Faculty.

Starting from the second year of the program, students also have the opportunity to pursue salaried teaching and research assistantships.
