Testimonials
“I believe that the most disctintive feature of this PhD programme is the world class researchers that the School has in house. They can really help you to take your research to the next level. Most of the non elective courses are one to one, with a supervising professor and that is really important, because they allow you to really customize and direct all your efforts according to what you want to research, what you want to achieve.”
“Attending the PhD in Business and Management Studies at the School of Economics and Management of the University of Porto proved to be an extremely enriching personal and professional experience, allowing me to acquire, deepen and share a wide range of knowledge and develop solid personal relationships. Endowed with a teaching staff of excellent quality, fostering rigorous scientific research alongside the practical component, the PhD in Business and Management Studies is undeniably playing an important role in my professional activity as a researcher and Professor of higher education. Given the quality, based on rigour and demand, I strongly recommend the PhD in Business and Management Studies.”
