I have been quite pleased with my experience with the ISM PhD program. My expectation coming out of the program was to have developed a strong research agenda and build upon my teaching experience so that I could move into a teaching position at a good university. I have accomplished both my teaching and research objectives!
The ISM PhD is unique in many ways and this has helped me in my search for a teaching position. Throughout my search, I was very happy with the responses I received to my application materials and the inquiries regarding my degree from ISM. The fact that I had a PhD with a strong international focus is what opened the door for me with many institutions. I appeared "different" than the other candidates.
Being an educator is all about helping individuals succeed in their personal and/or professional pursuits. I found that many of the ISM instructors take this to heart and truly are there to help the students. This approach not only helps the ISM students succeed in their personal objectives but also provides a teaching philosophy that the PhD students can subsequently emulate as they embark on a career in academia. |

I enrolled in ISM's DBA program with the explicit intention of teaching full-time at the university level. I was both pleased and impressed with the academic rigor of the program. This experience included work with both New York and Paris based faculty.
Importantly, I found the faculty and staff universally supportive of my goal to join the academic community. Much credit must go to Dean Horn, who provided guidance along the way, and a helpful reference as I sought faculty positions. In addition, he was charged with reading my Dissertation, not a small feat by any means.
I recommend the ISM DBA program without reservation. It is a challenging program and appropriately so. In the end, the outcome clearly justified the effort. |

The ISM PhD program has been very important in my academic work as a teacher and researcher. I believe that no other program available has a group of students with such an incredible professional background. Attending the seminar has always provided important resources for my course designs and often is a base for new research and publications. Teaching international business disciplines requires a broad perspective and interdisciplinary studies, and ISM provides all of that. The partnership with the Asian institutions is an incredible opportunity to acquire direct knowledge of those markets and to collaborate in research with overseas colleagues and renowned scholars. |

As a PhD candidate at ISM, my studies so far have made a significant impact in my life in teaching. My courses at ISM have provided a major contribution to my students’ experiences at Rockhurst. The International Capital Markets course, for example, was very, very good in helping me and subsequently my students understand the dynamics of markets and why they move. In fact, several of them said at the end the Capstone Course that it brought together the practical and applied aspects of their experiences in their business studies; this effect was a direct result of my courses at ISM. It has positively changed the way I approach my courses at Rockhurst; a real benefit for the students and for me. |
