Added a clear-cut steam line on WHY you want a PhD.

It is so important to understand why you want to pursue a doctorate. Aside the fact that you submit your application or not, or you will be accepted or not.

Thank you very much - I saved this post for myself, I will understand the topic a little

pubrica · Answer

Before I continue editing services, a few limitations. I applied for a PhD in management and strategy (and started my program in Fall 2010). The general application of this guidance should extend to the fields of marketing, information systems, operations management, organizational behaviour, and, to a lesser degree, finance. I won't remark on the graduate degrees in sociology and economics because they are two different things. Additionally, I have only profited from "supply-side" knowledge; I am not aware of information about how admission committees make their judgments specifically.(pubrica Health Care)
