Administration, business, and economics provide a broad base of understanding commerce. While administration is more focused on management issues, business examines the different disciplines involved such as distribution, accounting, marketing, human resources and operations. Economics is the study of the factors driving business, like supply and demand.

A Doctorate of Business Administration is earned through a high-level and research-based academic program focused on the necessary knowledge required for elite academic or consulting careers. Programs are often composed of Business Theory, Research Design and Professional Development coursework in addition to independent study.
