Rigor. Research. Rewards.
UCLA Anderson offers a research-oriented doctoral program in seven areas of study. Our doctoral students come from around the globe and possess a broad range of research interests and experiences. Working closely with faculty, both in the classroom and in the development of research, students reach the highest levels of scholarly achievement. The program's primary focus is on independent inquiry, research methodology and publication of research results.
Our school continually strives to enhance its position among the most elite business school Ph.D. programs. We have been adding new faculty at an unprecedented rate, even since receiving our #1 in intellectual capital ranking from Business Week just a few years ago. The additional faculty has given us one of the best ratios of research faculty to students among major programs.
Upon graduating, UCLA Anderson students have obtained positions at most of the great educational institutions in the world including Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, Cornell, Harvard, M.I.T., Northwestern, New York University, Penn State, Purdue, Stanford, UC Berkeley, the University of Chicago, the University of Michigan, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Texas, the University of Virginia, Yale, INSEAD, Hong Kong University, London Business School, and the University of British Columbia.
