Hi all,
I'm an MBA (US) planning to do a full-time PHD(Business-CSR) in UK. Honestly, I don't have any kind of research background nor do i have any papers published. The only research I have ever done is for the projects in MBA.I know I have an uphill task ahead. I still have to study a lot before I could prepare the Research Proposal even for applying to the universities. I had few questions if anyone can help me out I'll be really thankful.
1. I don't have any funds to support myself? When can I apply for scholarships for international students and what are the chances that I would get full funding?
2. I'm having a job right now(A source of income), which is only denting my skills and I dont see my self growing in this job anyway? So for me to take up PHD I have to leave this job and start preparing for PHD? Should take this risk of leaving the job and start preparing for PHD especially when Im dependant on full scholarship?
3. Do I have to write GMAT to get an admission in UK?
4. If possible I would like to save some money send some money back to my parents? Will it be possible with the income of stipends, I'm really willing to work hard so that i can be helpful to my family?
5. Is it true that some universities would also give free accomodation to phd students in some cases?
6. I guess i miss the deadlines for this year, I dont mind waiting for few months, as it is I have to start preparing for the research proposal?
I know its a long list, but your little help make my career and i'll be thankful to you all. Thanks a lot, God bless u all.
Hi All,
I'm a MBA, presently working as a Business developer, I'm really interested in doing a PHD(Business Ethics & Corporate Social Responsibility), I have been trying to schools in US who have a this PHD program, but couldn't find any. I was wondering if anyone has any idea about this program or who is already done a PHD in this field. Since there are not many schools(At least I didn't find any), is it a rare program or a field that's been less researched on? If anyone has any idea about this program, I would really appreciate it?
Thank you,
Sam
