I encourage you to pursue our DBA program. This program allows you to be recognized as Doctors in Business Administration and serves as a privileged path to work on concrete issues with the support of experienced academic supervisors. You will develop scientific skills that will help you understand and solve management challenges.
The DBA offered by Clermont School of Business, an AACSB-accredited school, is a high-level degree providing professionals the opportunity to undertake in-depth research in management while continuing a corporate career. So, if you are looking for an intellectual challenge and an academic perspective, and if you wish to combine research with your professional activity, the DBA is an ideal option for advancing in your career. Don’t hesitate, get started!
Clermont School of Business, an AACSB-accredited school, offers a Doctorate of Business Administration programme, a generalist DBA that covers the range of high-level management activities in organisations. It is designed around three ambitions.
This program is therefore intended to be an optimistic bet on a richer and more fruitful future for management sciences and all its new actors. This is particularly based on one of the major specificities of the DBA at Clermont School of Business: a thought-out and mastered articulation between the imperative of rigor and the need for relevance for management research. We invite you to discover this promise in detail here.
The program is part-time (seminars are on weekends), over three years with the possibility of an additional year if necessary, and it is delivered fully online. The language is English for all teaching modules; however, the thesis supervisor support, the writing of the thesis and the defense can be done either in French or in English at the doctoral student’s choice.
Individual follow-up: 15 hours of follow-up meetings with the DBA Supervisor each year

Please submit your application on our dedicated platform by clicking on the button below.
The process of enrolling is progressive. We have put in place a ‘start-up process along the semester’ aiming at enabling doctoral students to begin their research in the best conditions. The principle is that, as soon as the registration is confirmed within the semester (Jan-Jun 2024), a DBA supervisor is assigned to the doctoral student who can so benefits from doctoral supervision supplemented by two additional research support workshops, organized during the semester. The scheduling of seminars begins in October 2024.
Candidates therefore have the opportunity to join the program at the time that suits them during the semester preceding the courses. This allows them to benefit from additional individual supervision time with their thesis supervisor, as well as feedback from two doctoral workshops to get a head start on the reading work and the launch of their research, in particular the definition of their research questioning.
