One-on-One Mentoring with Faculty

Doctoral training in business technology at the University of Miami emphasizes one-on-one mentoring with faculty. We have a large number of faculty who are active in research, and whose main goal is to work on mentoring and publishing with students.

Small Program Size

We keep our PhD program small. Students entering the PhD in Business Technology program will find a nurturing and collaborative culture in which faculty members are accessible and eager to work with them. As a result, our students work closely and in-depth with multiple faculty members and graduate from the program with multiple publications and projects in advanced stages.
