The Doctor of Marketing (PhD) objective is to help students prepare for a career in marketing by providing the right tools and knowledge. Also by having a PhD the students can choose to do academic research or teach in their chosen field.

The purpose of the Ph.D. in Marketing Management is to develop applied and highly specialized competencies and practical skills in the acquisition, interpretation, comprehension, and application of marketing management principles. The qualification also intends to make original contributions to the field.

A research thesis in this PhD programme should develop and deepen recent and innovative marketing strategies and concepts, including social media and the Internet, that help us to improve strategies to stay in touch with customers.

The PhD is a programme of independent, self-directed academic research degree, supported by a team of supervisors that makes an original contribution to knowledge written up in a publishable dissertation. The PhD programme also supports the development of research and generic skills to equip you to operate successfully as a professional researcher in any setting. The essential requirement of a PhD is the creation of new knowledge. Being a researcher means developing new ideas and improving understanding through the creation of new knowledge.

The Doctoral Program in Marketing and Strategy is a joint project from the Universities of Minho (UM), Aveiro (UA) and Beira Interior (UBI).

The curriculum consists of a thesis that incorporates a research proposal, an oral defence (viva voce) and two manuscripts, based on the candidate's research, submitted for publication to a recognised accredited journal. Proof of the submission of the manuscripts is a compulsory condition for the degree to be conferred.

The doctorate is conferred on a student only if one of the following periods has expired:
