Do you know or is anyone of you here doing PhD in business related subject? I plan to apply for my PhD for fall 2005 and your help would be highly appreciated.

I plan to look into either Non-for-proft , MIS or Finance, Or Market Research.

Thank you in advance,


FMN

Hi,

Yes im in Marketing /Ad....... which includes Marketing Research, Consumer Research, International Journal of Research in Marketing, Marketing Science, Journal of Marketing, Marketing modeling, International marketing etc etc....

Since your interest is in Finance and not knowing your destination...let me still tell you few things. So far i am informed.... like all things in life it depends. A PhD can look great if your area of research is very quantitative. However, if your PhD has not much practical relevance in industry, then a PhD could in fact block your career opportunities. I have known people with MBAs, virtually no finance experiences become VPs.. and conversely I have also known PhDs in finances reaching a glass ceiling because they could not communicate well to clients. Also every graduate program has its own admissions requirements....so why not get in touch with them.

Good Luck

I might next yr. Still confused about what to it on.

Ma pani business related subject ma nai bhannu paryo. My field is more concentrated in business activities in a specific region (which I will disclose if required).

BTW, I am in UK hai, not US. And I am relatively new to this Phd thing. Kaile kai ta yo phd chd tyagera Haridwar Kasi tira gayera tapasya garu jasto ni lagcha :) Started it about 3 months back.

Though I may not have much info related to application proceudre, please feel free to email me - by clicking my nick above - regarding any other related queries you may have.

Good luck in your pursuit of further knowledge.

Hi ,
can u give me some more idea's about it?

PHD in business related subject is a very intesting line of work indeed. Unless you are going to persue research/education it might be tough for you to capitalize on your background. However there seems to be a demand for busines people who can apply social science to it. There seem

If you already have biz background, I would persue something else for phd. One thing positive about bush administration is that they want non profits to come up with financially sustainable model. so i am sure in the future in teh world of non profit we will begin to see leaders that are socially conscious biznessmen or biznesswomen.

good luck!

I feel your pain hehe.

Matrixgirl, i m glad that u feel the pain too. At least i m not the only one, haha.

But its a kind of a bittersweet pain. Banaras ko laddu jasto ke.......jo khaye wo bhi pachutaye, jo nakhaye wo bhi pachutaye !

I know what you mean....i myself am done with first year....and sometimes feel like throwing away everything...but then again i happen to think like you. LOL.

Hello FMN,

I am in third year in the college of business. Getting into a doctoral program will make sense if you are thinking of a career in teaching/research, else 10 year commitment may have lots of oppurtunity costs in terms of your career advancement in practical world. I say 10 year for a career in teaching/research because it takes 4-5 yrs to get a degree and another 4-5 yrs more for tenure in university.

Will be glad to to share my experience if you are interested, send me your contact info.

Happy New Year 2005.

Take care.

I just completed MBA in finance and would like to do Phd in Finance.Help needed.

Thank you for the info.

How much do you think is the minimum GMAT requirement?

MatrixGirl are you around St Louis???

No forget me not....im not around there.
