The PhD in Management is offered in three fields: 1) marketing and consumer behaviour; 2) organizational leadership; and 3) services management. Applicants seeking to work with a faculty member from any of the three contributing academic units within the Lang School of Business and Economics (i.e., Department of Management, Department of Marketing and Consumer Studies, School of Hospitality, Food and Tourism Management) on a research topic that does not align with any of the three fields listed above are also welcome to apply.
