The goal of the Department of Marketing' Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) program is to provide students with world-class training in research and teaching and prepare them for faculty positions at major research universities world-wide.
The doctoral program in marketing at The University of Arizona offers:
- Full-time program (normally 4-5 years)
- Fields of study include consumer culture, consumer psychology, marketing, modeling, and marketing strategy*
- Encompasses theories and methodologies from anthropology, communications, economics, management, psychology, sociology, and marketing
Only a small number of Ph.D. students are admitted each year, enabling students to work closely with faculty members and acquire a solid foundation in theory formulation, research design, and methodological skills.
Students enjoy minimal teaching loads, small class sizes, close faculty mentoring relationships, a collegial atmosphere, competitive funding for research and conferences, and access to a variety of support tools for research and teaching.
Note: Management is the major of all Eller College Ph.D. students, with specialty defined by coursework in a major and minor field. For other specializations within Eller College, visit Eller College Doctoral Programs.
