Course Overview

The Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) at City University Malaysia is the “Executive Scholar” program. It is the pinnacle of professional business education, designed for senior leaders who want to move beyond the “how” of management to the “why” of business science, solving complex global challenges through rigorous, evidence-based research. This program focuses on Applied Research Mastery. Unlike a traditional PhD which often focuses on pure theory, the DBA empowers you to conduct Independent Research that directly addresses real-world industrial problems. You will master Advanced Analytical Frameworks to dissect global market shifts and organizational crises. A unique pillar of the program is the Dissemination of Knowledge; you are trained to publish your findings in prestigious academic journals and industry reports, establishing yourself as a Thought Leader. You will graduate not just as a manager, but as a “Practitioner-Scholar” capable of driving innovation at the highest levels of global commerce.
