Overview

Due to its profile, the Doctoral School fills a special gap, since this is the first doctoral programme in Hungary whose training and research curriculum focuses on business and management related issues of small and medium-sized enterprises and family businesses. The Doctoral School offers an educational and training programme following the best traditions of scientific research: from this approach all those interested in academic carriers, those involved in everyday business practice, and even those having MBA degrees will benefit.

Programme structure

To obtain all 240 credit points, the PhD student carries out the following activities:

Doing course work, conducting research, publishing articles and conference papers, and teaching under the guidance of a supervisor. A total of 10% of the credits can be obtained through supervised teaching at a bachelor programme.

The doctoral program is divided into two phases: (1) training and research phase (4 semesters) and (2) dissertation research phase (4 semesters). 240 credits are required to complete the full training programme (i.e. for obtaining a pre-degree certificate).

In the first stage, students focus on their studies and research, and also publish papers. At the end of the 1st phase, students take a complex exam.
At the second phase, students engage in publication. Publication requirements include at least two conference presentations and minimally four journal articles in line with the programme’s training plan.

Career opportunities

Students accomplishing the doctoral program will acquire theoretical, methodological and practical knowledge and skills that will allow them to pursue applied research, to analyse entrepreneurial, economic and financial phenomena and processes through the lens of science, as well as to tackle challenges in the world of science, real economy and the public sphere.
With the knowledge and skill obtained at the Doctoral School, our graduates may become successful professionals working as highly skilled and innovative analysts, managers or entrepreneurs.
