Worldwide, people and organizations are experiencing rapid changes in what they do, how they do it, and even why they do it. Increasing globalization, geopolitical shifts and new technologies demand new modes of working and talent with new and diverse set of skills.

A life-long Learning

The launch of the Global Executive Ph.D. program coincides with the necessities of life-long learning. Everyone must continuously learn new skills. Leaders of today are those who embrace continuous education and constantly increase their knowledge, skills, and competencies.

A different programme different

What makes our Global Executive Ph.D. different to other programs is the focus on the quality of research and our international focus. Prof. Pramuan Bunkanwanicha, Associate Dean for Research, “The Global Executive Ph.D. at ESCP Business School offers a unique opportunity to follow a world-class practitioner-oriented doctorate education in management. Our program is designed to prepare today’s executives to become tomorrow’s business thinkers.” ESCP, member of Sorbonne doctoral school, intends to build more bridges between the corporate world and Research and will educate high-level executives who want to combine their business expertise with academia. ESCP, which has more than 130 academic partnerships, will bring its international dimension in the EPh.D. program with invited world class faculty from Harvard, Wharton, Tsinghua etc.

A Bridge between Professionam Careers and Academic Ambitions

As well as being the steppingstone needed to bridge professional careers with academic ambitions, the Executive Ph.D. program also introduces those who study on the program to a global network of 60,000 strong ESCP Alumni. With 60% of ESCP students being international students, and 50% of their faculty being from other parts of the world, ESCP Business School not only values the academic and professional backgrounds of those on the Executive Ph.D. program, but they also value cultural diversity.

The highest Academic degree

Ultimately, the Executive Ph.D. program is one of the highest academic degree you can obtain from a top business school, and it is designed to develop those with forward thinking mindsets, and how to adapt their leadership skills within a challenging environment.

A Unique Opportunity

“Doing an EPh.D. is a unique opportunity to step back and adopt a big picture view. It is an academically rigorous program but compatible with the busy agendas of reflective leaders.” says Prof. Bertrand Moingeon, Executive Vice-President and Dean for Executive Education and Corporate Initiatives Dean of ESCP.

A World leading Expert
