EPhD FAQ
About Executive PhD
Who should consider the EPhD?
The Executive PhD is designed for working professionals who desire to continue their career while obtaining a doctorate equivalent degree. The program is ideal for those candidates who seek to deepen their overall business knowledge and understanding of high-level research skills in order to address the complex challenges facing them in today’s business environment. One can also pursue the executive PhD as a means of transitioning into a career in academia or to enhance their experience for a career in research and consulting.
What benefits should I expect from obtaining an Executive PhD?
While pursuing your Executive PhD program, you will have the opportunity to make valuable networking connections with other high-level executives and faculty members from IIM Udaipur and Fox School of Business, Temple University (via in-person and online immersions). Students who graduate from this program can expect a deeper understanding of managing organisations and innovative approaches to problem-solving. This understanding will allow for intellectual development and personal growth as an individual, as an executive, and as a contributor to the community and society.
Program Details
Do I need to travel to Udaipur to participate?
Yes. During the three-year Program, courses will be delivered through a series of four two-week long residencies. During these residencies, there will be face-to-face classroom instruction, seminars and networking events. In between residencies, there will be assignments and projects that require collaboration.
Is attendance mandatory?
Yes, attendance is mandatory. Each student must attend all residencies.
When do EPhD classes meet?
EPhD classes are held during four on-campus residencies at IIM Udaipur over the first two years of coursework. Each residency requires a two-week commitment, with classes running from approximately 9 am to 6 pm, excluding Sundays. The students also meet during the 9 day long international immersion at the Fox School of Business, Philadelphia.
Do you accept transfer credit from other academic programs?
No. Since the program is a cohort-based, executive format, we do not accept credit transfers or waivers.
How long will it take to complete the Program?
The Program is a cohort-based model designed to be completed within three years. Special provisions can be made to extend the Program by one more year. The maximum duration of the Program is five years.
Admission
What factors are considered for admission to the Program?
Admission to the executive PhD Program is based on factors such as a minimum of 10 years of professional experience, a strong academic background (see Eligibility Criteria), and the candidate's ability and motivation to conduct practitioner-relevant research. A genuine desire for learning is essential.
Is an interview required?
Yes, an interview is required. All applicants shortlisted for the program must interview with our admissions committee before an offer of admission is extended.
What will I need in order to apply?
Your application file should contain:
YA complete application form
Academic transcripts from all institutions of higher learning that you attended
Proof of work experience
Application fee (payable by credit card)
Do all my application materials have to be sent at the same time?
Yes, all application materials have to be submitted at the same time.
What are the expectations from students in the executive PhD Program?
The executives are expected to complete two years of doctoral coursework (via four on-campus residencies, research projects, and international immersion), and conduct high-quality practice relevant research for their dissertation.
Is an MBA a prerequisite for this program?
An MBA is not a prerequisite for this program. For more details, please refer to the EPhD Programs Eligibility Criteria on the website.
How rigorous is the Doctoral Program at IIMU?
The program is highly rigorous, demanding a significant level of academic commitment and integrity. Specific requirements must be met at each stage of the program.
How many executive PhD students are typically admitted each year?
Each year, about 10 to 13 executive PhD students are admitted, but the exact number can change depending on student performance and needs.
Must I apply for a specific area of specialisation, or can I choose one after admission?
The applicant does not need to apply for a specific area of specialisation. The applicant can choose one after admission from these four options: Finance & Accounting, Organisational Behaviour and Human Resources Management, Operations Management, and Marketing.
What financial aid options are available to the executive PhD students?
The EPhD program does not offer any financial aid.
Is accommodation provided for the executive PhD students?
Yes, all executive PhD students will get single accommodation at no extra cost during their residencies.
Is married accommodation available on campus during residencies?
