2 min read

This doctorate study program is a 100% research-based academic pathway designed for senior executives, policy makers, researchers, and international business professionals who aim to combine advanced strategic management expertise with high-level Arabic language proficiency and deep understanding of Arab economic, commercial, and cultural environments. Positioned at a study level equal to EQF Level 8 and aligned with the Third European Cycle, the program emphasizes original research, analytical excellence, and strategic leadership within regional and global Arab markets.

The Doctorate in Business Management and Arabic is structured around seven comprehensive modules: four research-intensive modules focusing on advanced research design, quantitative and qualitative methodologies, analytical modeling, and academic publishing strategies; two general modules strengthening executive leadership, innovation management, governance, and organizational transformation; and one specialized module dedicated to business management within Arab-speaking markets, cross-border trade systems, and regional economic frameworks. The program culminates in a doctoral-level thesis and structured research activities that demonstrate the candidate’s ability to generate new knowledge and propose evidence-based solutions to complex management challenges.

With a minimum duration of +18 months, the program offers flexibility for candidates to extend their studies according to research scope and professional commitments. The research-driven structure cultivates critical thinking, strategic foresight, policy analysis capability, and advanced bilingual communication skills necessary for leadership roles in multinational corporations, regional enterprises, governmental institutions, international organizations, and consultancy environments operating within Arab markets.

Graduates of this doctorate study program are prepared to operate at the highest levels of strategic decision-making, international expansion, governance development, and economic analysis, particularly in contexts where managerial excellence intersects with linguistic and cultural expertise in Arabic-speaking regions.
