Personal Impact

Our DBA provides a rich developmental experience using the latest research tools and techniques to develop leading edge thinking and analytical skills. As a result, our Executive DBA alumni go on to reach senior positions; sometimes moving into roles within government or starting their own consultancy business.

Coming to Cranfield is a life-changing experience for many.

Faculty Support

As the issues addressed by researchers are real organisational problems, they tend to be cross-functional, requiring input from several faculty with differing expertise. This is reflected in our supervisory structure which ensures you receive the most appropriate level of support.

Accreditation

Our Executive DBA is one of only a few Doctor of Business Administration programmes worldwide to hold the Association of MBAs (AMBA) accreditation.
