Executive Doctorate in Business Administration

The first AACSB-accredited degree of its kind in Florida, Crummer’s Executive Doctorate in Business Administration is designed for executives who have an MBA or equivalent degree who want to become thought leaders and contribute to organizational success at a significantly higher level than that afforded by the MBA.

The Executive Doctorate in Business Administration (EDBA) experience provides you with an impetus for career advancement and a springboard for personal and professional change. Taught by top professors with real-world experience, courses follow the “engaged scholarship” model that focuses on topics at the intersection of theory and contemporary business practice – class sessions are always mindful of how the learning can be immediately applied.

Each student works closely with a faculty advisor for the duration of the 3-year program, and the experience culminates with a year-long dissertation that addresses issues and challenges that apply directly to the executive’s business interest. EDBA students meet once a month on campus, in a Friday/Saturday format, allowing you to continue working full time. No GMAT is required.
