Programme Methodology
The Euro DBA is a pioneering programme which adopts a unique perspective of doctorate programmes. Unlike traditional doctorate programmes which are based on the premise that there must be a ‘learning transfer’ in a programme of study, the Euro DBA views a doctoral programme, especially a DBA, on the premise that candidates need a learning platform where there is ample opportunity for knowledge sharing and codification rather than dry knowledge transfer.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS
Candidates wishing to pursue the Professional DBA degree must have a Master degree or its equivalent or a first degree with at least 5 years working experience or at least 10 years of work experience at the management level. All approvals are subject to the recommendation of University’s Board of Studies.
BUSINESS LEADERSHIP PORTFOLIO
Evaluation methods and grading systems based on traditional assignments and evaluation are increasingly becoming mere simplifiers of academic beurocratic processes. They don’t actually measure what a candidate should understand at the end of each learning process. The use of traditional modes of assignments and written projects are no longer viewed as a suitable form of evaluation. This is increasingly becoming evident in adult higher education.
The more popular and meaningful alternative being adopted by many international institutions world-wide is the Portfolio method which provides the opportunity for candidates to exhibit their understanding of the subject matter through the presentation of work-based evidences. These may have actually occurred in a candidate’s work-place or something that the candidate feels he/she can now implement at the work-place.
