If you would like to receive an informal assessment of whether your experience and career goals are a good fit for the DBA, you can submit your CV for review by our DBA team.
How to apply
To apply you will need to submit your CV along with a research proposal document expressing what you are interested in researching, and how you intend to use the academic insights offered by the programme to tackle a specific issue within your organisation.
The final application deadline for the DBA 2023 intake was scheduled to be Friday 31 March 2023. However, due to a large number of high quality applications, applications will now close on Monday 20 March 2023.
A waitlist may be offered to any subsequent applications, although consideration for this year’s cohort cannot be guaranteed once the waitlist phase has commenced. After the deadline, your application will be added to the 2024 submission process.
