The PhD Program in accounting at Aalto BIZ offers interdisciplinary training that develops the student’s skills in conducting both financial accounting and management accounting research. As an academic field, accounting is a multidisciplinary subject that focuses on understanding and studying the role of accounting information in the economy and society. Accounting draws from many fields and disciplines: Financial accounting is aligned with economics and finance more closely than ever before while organizational and sociological theories contribute to management accounting.

The PhD Programme in accounting at Aalto BIZ provides students with in-depth knowledge of current accounting research and research methodology with the aim of enabling the students to contribute to scientific knowledge in their field of study from an international perspective. In practice this goal translates into students’ ability to publish their research in high-quality academic accounting journals. To help achieve this goal, students work closely with accounting faculty.

Faculty research at Aalto BIZ represents a broad spectrum of interests and research methods in the areas of financial and management accounting. The emphasis of research in financial accounting is on financial reporting and analysis, broadly defined. Recent research addresses various topics in international accounting (IFRS), auditing, and corporate governance. Research in the field of management accounting focuses on cost management, management control systems, performance measurement, and capital investment decision making. Recent research topics include, for example, the use and role of management accounting information in the Finnish healthcare sector.

Degree requirements

General research studies 18 ECTS (see above)

Research field studies in Accounting 42 ECTS

Methodological Requirements and Recommendations

Students wishing to pursue doctoral studies in accounting at Aalto BIZ are expected to have taken methodological courses already in their master’s level studies. In addition, depending on their specific research area, students are recommended to take at least one advanced course on quantitative or qualitative research methods in their disciplinary studies (see item 3 above).

Complementary Studies in Accounting

Doctoral students with a non-accounting major for their master’s degree are obliged to complement their studies by taking at least three optional master’s level courses in accounting offered by the Aalto BIZ (18 ECTS credits) and by writing a concise thesis on an accounting topic or writing research papers (12 ECTS credits). These minimum requirements may be augmented on an ad hoc basis depending on each student’s background.

Entrepreneurship is a multi-faceted and pronouncedly multi-disciplinary field of research for scholars from different backgrounds including but not limited to business studies, economics, finance, education, psychology, sociology, history, and economic geography. 

Research in entrepreneurship focuses not only on the emergence and development of new (commercial, social and/or sustainable) business ventures, but also the people behind these ventures, people acting entrepreneurially within existing (private or public) organizations, and the interaction between entrepreneurship, society, and the natural environment. These features make entrepreneurship a particularly fascinating and challenging field of scholarly enquiry, which is open to different theoretical and methodological approaches.

In addition to the doctoral thesis, the doctoral studies in Entrepreneurship include coursework amounting to 60 ECTS. This is divided into two categories: 1) the general studies provide a foundation for conducting research within the field of business, and 2) the research field studies in entrepreneurship provide you with the theoretical, methodological, and practical skills required of a professional entrepreneurship scholar.

Degree requirements

General research studies 18 ECTS credits (see above)

Research field studies 42 ECTS credits

The following courses are compulsory but as per agreement with the head of doctoral studies and the respective course coordinator, it is possible to give (partial) credit for these courses based on courses, tutorials, or workshops taken outside of the school of business, in Finland or abroad.

The courses “Getting started”, “Moving forward”, “Entrepreneurship theory” and “Perspectives on organization” reflect the main (first year) introductory courses in our Entrepreneurship Program. The remaining courses “Entrepreneurship as a research field I and II” and “Entrepreneurship research in practice I and II” are organized (on a demand basis) in form of research seminars, tutorials, and paper development workshops.

The doctoral program in International Business at Aalto BIZ focuses on content relating to the theory, research, and practice of management with a cross-border or cross-cultural dimension or developing an understanding the unique aspects of how management in different areas of the world works.  Our doctoral program warmly embraces quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-method research, but it requires and facilitates doctoral students developing strong methodological skills in their chosen approach as well as some diverse method skills to be able to understand published research well.  While we encourage methodologic rigor, doing research which is interesting and makes an impactful contribution is of great importance to our unit.  The doctoral program focuses on helping doctoral students gain the skills needed to publish articles in top academic journals, however, we also encourage doctoral students to consider how their research can influence management practice.  We warmly welcome cross-disciplinary research. To help develop the above-mentioned skills and facilitate publishing in top journals, doctoral students work closely with faculty in the unit. 

The International Business Unit at Aalto is one of the leading and largest international business units globally. Currently about 15 doctoral students are enrolled in the program and the program has had over 60 graduates.  While the IB unit has high goals and standards, it is also a unit that values interaction, a nice atmosphere, and having fun and believes that such an environment helps to foster good research. 

We welcome doctoral students interested in any topic inside of international business to apply to our doctoral program.  However, we have particular competence in the following areas: management of companies operating internationally; international people management across various markets; sustainability, including social and cultural, in cross-border business and partnerships; qualitative research methods; and effective management practices in large transforming economies like Russia and China .

Degree requirements

General research studies 18 ECTS (see above)

Research field studies 42 ECTS

The objective of the Research field studies is to develop specific competences related to discipline and field of research. The core of the International Business PhD Program is taking part in the NORD-IB Doctoral Program which is a set of six short doctoral courses totaling 30 ECTS run collectively by leading schools in the Nordic region.  Taking part in NORD-IB facilitates both learning important IB knowledge and networking with scholars from around the Nordic region and beyond. For more information see: http://nord-ib.fek.uu.se/ 

IB doctoral students are also required to take 12 credits of research methods/ statistics courses either as part of their General Research Studies or their Research Field Studies.  These courses could be courses like: Qualitative research: Principles and practices (90L54609), Quantitative Empirical Research(30E00500), the EIASM EDEN Seminar on Case Studies in Business and Management Research, a course on structural equation modelling, a course on multi-level modelling, Advanced Statistical Research Methods (TU-L0040), or courses from the Global School in Empirical Research Methods (GSERM) held in St. Gallen, Switzerland or Oslo, Norway (note: that many courses at GSERM are fewer than 6 credits so you may have to take two courses).  .  The course Statistical Research Methods (TU-L0022) can be taken instead of Quantitative Empirical Research (30E00500).

Research field studies in IB must include the following:

*In exceptional cases, the NORD-IB Program can be substituted with an individually agreed corresponding combination of doctoral courses organized by Aalto BIZ, other universities or graduate schools/networks. In this case, 26L30111 Theories and Research in International Business (or if this is not available, an individually agreed similar IB-focused core course from Aalto or elsewhere) has to be included.

Management Science applies mathematical models, statistical techniques, and computing technology, together with observational, experimental or simulated data, to help management make decisions in complex real-world settings. Management Science is an interdisciplinary field with strong links to economics, finance, marketing, operations research, systems analysis, and engineering. Management Science is concerned with developing and applying concepts, models and methods that may prove useful in helping to understand management issues and solve managerial problems, as well as designing and developing new and better models of organization. In short, Management Science helps businesses to achieve their goals using scientific methods. Today, more efficient use of ubiquitous digital information stored in massive databases – the “Big Data” – forms both an important challenge and opportunity for Management Science.

Students interested in doctoral studies in Management Science are encouraged to acquire strong methodological skills already during their undergraduate studies. In addition to the obligatory methodological studies, specialized courses in mathematics and statistics are recommended.
