Program Description
The Ph.D. in business administration (with an
emphasis in marketing) at Washington State
University is designed to prepare graduates for
careers in research and teaching. The primary
goal of the marketing Ph.D. program is to train
academics for placements at AACSB-accredited peer
institutions (preferably with a doctoral program
of their own) throughout the United States and
abroad. Those with a completed master’s
degree in a business discipline can complete the
Ph.D. in 4 years of full-time resident study. The
program encompasses a variety of formal and
informal interactions and projects with faculty
and others, as well as course work, comprehensive
exams, and dissertation research. It enables
students to develop substantial competencies in
the theory, practice, and research methodology
essential to the advancement of marketing
knowledge, while accommodating individual
backgrounds, experiences, and objectives. Course
work covers topics associated with the scholarly
pursuit of marketing as well as topics from
supporting fields of inquiry such as psychology,
sociology, and management. Extensive coverage of
research methods and statistics associated with
the social sciences also is a large component of
the program. In addition to specific coursework,
the marketing Ph.D. program also provides an
environment in which students can develop
research competencies in close association with
the marketing faculty and other Ph.D. students.
