PhD Theory and Practice of Management (IDPM) at Lancaster University

Programme overview

The part-time PhD in the Theory and Practice of Management (TPM) combines the academic rigour of a traditional PhD with the accessibility of a structured, part-time research programme. An EFMD doctoral conference hosted at Lancaster placed significant emphasis on the changing forms of knowledge production within academia and in society more broadly, as well as the need for universities to update their provision to reflect the societies they serve. This programme is a response to that need, with its increased focus on research impact and business engagement.
