    Dear Colleagues,

    We are kindly asking for your help in identifying exceptional students for the Management and Strategy PhD Program at George Washington University's School of Business (GWSB), with admittance to the program for Fall 2022.

    About our program

    Our five-year, fully-funded doctoral program prepares students to engage in high-quality research and pursue careers as faculty members at top academic research institutions. It offers a balanced array of core courses and doctoral seminars, with students being able to tailor their study program to their interests through electives. Our program also emphasizes close faculty-student engagement on research projects. Our students regularly present their research at prestigious conferences, and many have publications prior to graduation. Our students also have strong job placements, obtaining positions at universities worldwide. Students in our program receive tuition remission, a generous stipend for 5 years, health insurance, and access to research funds. Our program also fosters a cohesive environment through the Doctoral Student Association, which is dedicated to providing a sense of community and a support network for doctoral students (http://business.gwu.edu/programs/doctoral-programs/doctoral-student-association/).

    Acceptance to our PhD program is highly competitive. We look not only for strong academic backgrounds, but also the initiative and intellectual curiosity to break new ground.
