Dear colleagues and friends,
We are asking for your kind help in identifying exceptional students for the PhD program at the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands. We offer a variety of opportunities in the broad area of Business Administration, but currently specifically want to draw attention to the option to combine two years of high-class training (at MPhil level) in our Research Master with three years of a (paid) PhD candidate position. We are looking for potential students who are interested in joining our community per September 2016.
Our two-year, accredited Research Master, that we jointly offer with Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, named Business in Society, aims to prepare students for a PhD position or a research-related position in the public or private sector such as strategic advisor, researcher, or policy maker. The Research Master is designed to develop the theory-building skills of students besides strong methodological skills issues, useful in subfields such as Strategy, Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management, Technology & Innovation, Organization Theory, Marketing, Accounting, and Entrepreneurship. It is a competitive and selective program (max. 25 students) to enable individual mentoring by internationally renowned researchers.
Prospective candidates who are interested can read more about eligibility here and can apply for joining the Research Master that prepares them for their PhD here. Students take all the required coursework in the Research Master, in which they also have a lot of tailored options, including internships and assistantships to work with Faculty from the University of Amsterdam as well as the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
Faculty members of the University of Amsterdam publish in the leading research journals, including Academy of Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, Organization Science, Journal of Management, Strategic Management Journal, and Journal of Applied Psychology.
We offer various types of scholarships for students of the Research Master, and its graduates typically have a better position to apply for the fully paid PhD candidate positions at the University of Amsterdam –as well as at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam- afterwards. The deadline for enrollment is 1 April 2016, but some scholarship applications already close on 1 February 2016!
For more information, click here, or please contact Flore Bridoux (program co-director, f.m.bridoux@uva.nl). I have attached our new brochure too.
Sincerely,
Flore Bridoux
