The International PhD (IPHD) Program at Sun Yat-Sen Business School

Overview

The International PhD (IPHD) Program at Sun Yat-sen Business School (SYSBS) is designed to foster IPHD students to become top-notch doctoral students in both China and the world. At present, the program concentrates on one major – international management (IM) – coached by a team of domestically and internationally renowned faculty in the field. It is a full-time, five-year (or less), fully funded program offering the students tuition waiver and stipend. The program also arranges and financially supports each student one-year overseas training and research mentored by internationally reputed scholars. The program aims to place its doctoral students, after completing the program, in top Chinese business schools or internationally recognized business schools abroad. 

Distinctions

Ø The program focuses on establishing a solid theoretical and methodological foundation on which the doctoral students can build for their future research and academic career. Most courses (theories, methods, advanced topics), specifically designed for this program, will be offered by internationally reputed scholars. Courses are taught in English.

Ø Each student will be mentored throughout the program by a faculty team consisting of internationally established scholars from the U.S. and from SYSBS. The students are expected to sharpen their skills in research and publications not merely through coursework but by collaborative research with their international mentors or advisors.

Ø The program will financially support each student for up to five years by covering his or her all tuition and stipend in commensuration with living expenses in Guangzhou, providing they maintain satisfactory progress in the program.
