Our Pre-DBA programme is designed to support aspiring doctoral candidates in successfully preparing for admission into DBA programmes in the UK and internationally.

Delivered through interactive small group sessions alongside personalised one-to-one guidance, this programme helps you develop a strong and well-structured research proposal that meets the expectations of leading universities. You will be guided in selecting a research topic that aligns with your professional interests and adds value to your organisation. The course also supports you in reviewing existing academic literature, refining your research focus, formulating clear research questions, and selecting appropriate research methodologies.

In addition to proposal development, the programme provides comprehensive support throughout the application process. This includes building a professional and impactful CV, as well as preparing you for university interviews, which are a key part of the admission process.
