The PhD holders in Business Administration and Quantitative Methods will obtain an exceptional background as the Programme gives a deep knowledge in quantitative perspectives within the Business Administration. Therefore, they will be able to model most of the current conflicts arising in the modern companies and to have analytic tools to solve those conflicts accurately. In consequence, our PhD students have a wide range of possibilities in the labour market, such as:
- Becoming a management professor in colleges where quantitative aspects are highly considered. Furthermore, given the multidisciplinary character of the Programme offered, they will have the required knowledge to apply not only for Business but also for Statistics or Econometrics departments. This is obviously a clear advantage in comparison with candidates from other more specialised PhD Programmes.
- Due to the multidisciplinary character of the Programme, our doctors can also develop non-academic careers in companies looking for candidates with highly specialised management knowledge as well as capable of using analytic tools to get the optimal solutions.
- The PhD Graduates in Business Administration and Quantitative Methods are also prospective candidates for international consultancy companies which assess other companies in conflictive situations such as, for example, the introduction of new products and processes requiring advanced statistical analysis, updates of compensation methods to stakeholders, redesigning of contracts in conflictive financial situations and, overall, general redesigning within an organization.
- Given the specialization in multivariate analysis held by some of the Professors participating in the programme, our students will have an excellent background to analyse complex situations in contexts of large uncertainty. Thus they will be extremely attractive candidates for the biggest international consultancy companies.
