Doctorate in Business Administration option in Entrepreneurship
The business administration Ph.D. option in entrepreneurship produces graduates who
can meaningfully advance theory and practice within the discipline of entrepreneurship
and contribute to the pedagogical development of the field. The doctoral program is
personalized to reflect the intellectual interests of the students while capitalizing
on the strengths of our entrepreneurship faculty. Students are afforded the opportunity
to generate and publish research with faculty mentors and receive active support in
facilitating their own research. The OSU program is intended to be small, selective and rigorous. Although our core
emphasis is innovative, growth-oriented ventures, we seek students interested in entrepreneurial
behavior in all of its manifestations, including start-up, corporate, social and public
sector contexts.
