Organization is the practice of arranging a group of people into a business, government, association, society, nonprofit, or other highly structured arrangement. It requires everything from communication to leadership skills and is related to a variety of academic disciplines.

Requirements for the PhD program often involve the student having already obtained a Master’s degree. Additionally, a thesis or dissertation primarily consisting of original academic research must be submitted. In some countries, this work may even need to be defended in front of a panel.
