Doctor of Business Administration

Doctor of Business Administration (DBA)
der University of Surrey (UK)
Der Bedarf an hochqualifizierten und praxisnah ausgebildeten Mitarbeitern, die
funktionsübergreifend und in strategischen Zusammenhängen denken können
und auch für einen Auslandseinsatz geeignet sind, ist sehr hoch. Der Doctor of
Business Administration (DBA) ist ein Doktorat, das für den Praktiker entwickelt
wurde. Dieser Abschluss eröffnet Karrierechancen im gehobenen internationalen
Management, besonders in Unternehmensberatungen, Finanzdienstleistungsun-
ternehmen und bei multinationalen Firmen. Viele europäische Unternehmen
rekrutieren grenzüberschreitend besonders in Hinsicht auf wirtschaftswissen-
schaftliche Fachrichtungen.
Der Doctor of Business Administration soll einen wissenschaftlichen Beitrag zur
Professionalisierung des Managements leisten. Die Forschungsarbeit des Doc-
tors of Business Administration trägt direkt zur Weiterentwicklung der aktuellen
Managementtheorien bei. Forschungsthemen sind vorzugsweise aus den Ar-
beitsgebieten der Professoren der Surrey Business School der University of Sur-
rey zu entnehmen.
Sie studieren das Doctoral Programme der Surrey Business School der Universi-
ty of Surrey an der IBS International Business School im berufsbegleitenden
Studium mit Seminaren. Fünf Seminarwochenenden finden im ersten Dokto-
randenjahr von Freitag bis Sonntag in den Räumlichkeiten der IBS International
Business School statt. Drei weitere Forschungsseminare schließen sich in den
beiden Folgejahren an. Der zeitliche Rahmen, den Sie für den Doctor of Busi-
ness Administration (DBA) insgesamt einplanen müssen, beläuft sich auf vier
Jahre.

Die University of Surrey ist eine der führenden berufsbildenden, technischen
und wissenschaftlichen Hochschulen Großbritanniens mit internationalem For-
schungsprofil und genießt einen hervorragenden Ruf im Bereich Forschung und
Lehre. Viele der bahnbrechenden Forschungsleistungen der Universität haben
direkten Einfluss auf alle möglichen Lebensbereiche – etwa indem sie der In-
dustrie einen dauerhaften Wettbewerbsvorsprung verschaffen oder in Bereichen
wie Medizin, Raumfahrtwissenschaft, Umwelt, Telekommunikation sowie im Ver-
teidigungs-, Gesundheits- und Sozialwesen für Fortschritt sorgen. Doch nicht
nur die Forschungs- und Technologieprogramme der Universität finden breite
Anerkennung, sondern auch die Studiengänge wie Musik, Sozialwissenschaften,
Betriebswirtschaft, Sprachen und Jura. Neben dem 150 Hektar großen Campus
am Rande von Guildford in der englischen Grafschaft Surrey unterhält die Uni-
versität zudem den universitätseigenen Surrey Research Park, der Einrichtungen
für 140 Unternehmen mit insgesamt 2.700 Mitarbeitern bietet. Nicht von unge-
fähr gab die Sunday Times der Universität den Beinamen ‚The University for
Jobs’ und unterstrich so das wachsende Renommee der Hochschule als Anbieter
hochwertiger, berufsorientierter Abschlüsse.

World Class Research

The University of Surrey is well known for being among the most efficient re-
search institutions in the UK. The Surrey Business School has the highest re-
search rating of all service sector management schools in the UK with nearly
60% of academic staff research-active. The school has a distinguished record of
high quality research which includes both theoretical studies to advance the
conceptual base of its research areas and applied research commissioned by
clients in the UK and overseas. It makes a major contribution to business com-
petitiveness in one of Europe’s most prosperous regions with its efficient turn-
around of large-scale research projects and delivery of cost-effective solutions.

In 2006, the School gained recognition from the Economic and Social Research
Council (ESRC) in recognition of the high standard of its MPhil/PhD pro-
grammes. In RAE 2008, the Surrey Business School obtained a rating of 4* out
of possible 5* rating.

The extensive engagement of the School’s academic staff injects greater quality
into teaching, consultancy and conferences. Furthermore the process is mutual-
ly beneficial with feedback from business managers attending programmes and
events in the School often enhancing its research activities. Further details of
the research activities are available on the School’s website
www.som.surrey.ac.uk.

The Surrey Business School has close links to UniSdirect which co-ordinates
promotion and support for the University of Surrey’s research and enterprise,
including the protection and commercialisation of Intellectual Property generat-
ed at the University. It also has responsibility for the provision and promotion of
University    expertise     to    small   and      medium       sized   enterprises.
www.unisdirect.com.

The School faculty currently consists of more than 80 academic staff allocated
to ten research subject group areas. This structure provides a clear focus for
research. In addition, the School is currently in the process of establishing a
number of centres of excellence, including the recently launched Centre for
Management Learning and Development (CMLD).

School announces its triple accreditation

On Friday 15th December 2006 the Surrey Business School was delighted to receive confirmation of the
accreditation of its MBA programme by AMBA (Association of MBAs) following a recent visit from their
review panel. More good news followed as the School also received confirmation of the renewal of its
tourism programme's accreditation by the UN World Tourism Organization (WTO).

Alongside the AACSB accreditation received in November 2005, these new accreditations mean that the
Surrey Business School is the only business school in the world to hold accreditations from these three
organisations simultaneously.

Welcoming the news, Head of School Professor Bob O'Keefe said; "We are delighted to have received
confirmation of these accreditations which have been awarded in recognition of the high standards of
our programmes and the hard work that both staff and students put into getting the most out of work-
ing and studying at Surrey."

MODULE TITLE: Philosophical Underpinnings of Management Research

Summary of Aims
The aim of this first module is to introduce students to a number of relevant
issues and debates related to the philosophical aspects of research and the
conduct of research in the management disciplines.
The module is designed to:
     To introduce students to the overall programme of studies and to explain
      the nature of a DBA qualification
     To provide conceptual understanding and examples of both inductive and
      deductive research design approaches
     To provide an understanding of the aspects and implications of the epis-
      temological and ontological features of research
     The ability to debate approaches to knowledge creation, science, truth
      and verification and to discuss the implications of alternative philosophical
      research models
     Introduce participants to a range of perspectives from Kuhn, Popper etc;
      in order to enable them to develop their own work in an appropriate con-
      ceptual framework related to a management topic.

MODULE TITLE: Quantitative Research Methods

Summary of Aims

     To understand in detail the technique of providing a link between the de-
      velopment of a research question and the parallel choice of the selection
      of an appropriate research design approach. This will impart knowledge
      to allow the student to conceptualise, design and implement a DBA pro-
      ject
     To assure the acquisition of a set of statistical techniques which will allow
      a student to understand data sets, judge if data has normality or skew-
      ness and from this to make decisions regarding descriptive or interpre-
      tive statistical application
     To be able to systematically acquire data by knowledge and practice of
      the construction of a non-biased measurement instrument
     To be able to utilise software such as SPSS in order to systematically in-
      terrogate data from a descriptive and inferential perspective (and to un-
      derstand differences between parametric and non-parametric tests)
     To provide a detailed understanding of quantitative techniques which can
      be utilised in advanced academic enquiry

MODULE TITLE: Qualitative Research Methods

Summary of Aims

To provide the acquisition of knowledge of the range of qualitative techniques
available to the doctoral student. - Philosophical aspects of phenomenological
techniques. Qualitative analysis techniques: discourse analysis, text analysis,
cognitive mapping, argument maps, event sequence analysis, knowledge of
computerised support packages, integrating both qualitative and quantitative
approaches in research design. Case study planning and analysis, group discus-
sion – focus and projective techniques, in-depth interviews, reflective diaries,
action learning.

To give students a grounding in the practical use of a range of alternative me-
thods for collection and analysis of qualitative data e.g. role playing, simulations
and demonstration of software.

search methods to addressing a business problem through using ‘soft’ ap-
proaches to qualitative management issues and data.

MODULE TITLE: Critical Evaluation of Literature

Summary of Aims

     To provide participants with the ability to engage critically as a reader of
      management texts, research reports and proposals
     To introduce core components of a structured approach for the critical
      examination and review of literature that focuses on in-depth critical ana-
      lysis of individual texts, with special reference to management
     To be able to develop the ability of making informed independent evalua-
      tive judgements on what appear to be complex managerial issues
     To be able to understand the ways to systematically approach literature
      from a critical perspective and to develop methods to assess advanced
      academic text
     To highlight learning from the parallel between constructively critical rea-
      ding of others’ writing in the literature and self-critical writing as creators
      of academic literature for other critical readers
