Mission and Vision

The mission of the Doctoral School is to train internationally competitive professionals capable of independent research in the field of management and organizational sciences, who contribute to socio-economic development with their scientific and innovative activities, and to create a bridge between scientific research and management practice with the newly established DBA program.

Its vision is to become a defining scientific workshop that strengthens the international position of the University of Debrecen through talent management, international research collaborations and high-quality publication performance.

In order to achieve this vision, the Doctoral School has the following key goals:

  • Involving corporate partners, through the examination of problems arising in practice with a scientific approach;
  • Stabilizing the number of students, by prioritizing qualitative aspects instead of quantitative expansion;
  • In the case of the DBA program, establishing a stable number of students (approximately 45-50) in the full, three-year structure;
  • automating and making administrative processes transparent, which enables the development of paperless, environmentally conscious administration, and also extends to the management of student applications through the NEPTUN system;
  • actively involving foreign lecturers and visiting professors in training, in order to strengthen the international flow of knowledge;
  • supporting the international experience of students and lecturers through conferences, research collaborations and joint applications.
