The Doctor of Business Administration (ODL) at Brickfields Asia College develops advanced business research and applied business knowledge through modules such as Advance Research Methods (Part 1 & 2), Advanced Organisation and Management, Accounting & Finance, Advanced Marketing Management, and Organisational Leadership. Students study research philosophy, processes, designs, research methods, reliability and validity, literature review techniques, sampling, research ethics, and research report writing, alongside business-focused management, finance, marketing, and leadership topics.
The programme is organised into Year 1, Year 2, and Year 3 modules. Year 2 includes Advanced Managerial Economics, Organisational Theory and Design, Advanced Organisational Behaviour, and Entrepreneurship. Year 3 includes Doctoral Research, where students plan, research, and write up a project to improve understanding of a managerial, business, or organisational issue and produce recommendations for action or findings. Students earn microcredentials from the University of Pennsylvania, Copenhagen Business School, and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign through relevant modules.
