Be ready for anything. This specialization includes researching the theoretical and practical study of risk management – the process of planning, organizing, and controlling the activities of an organization in order to minimize the effects of risk on the organization – and adding to the field of organizational development and leadership.
The PhD in Organizational Development and Leadership resembles the traditional practitioner model for the student who desires more preparation in the application of research, statistics, assessment, and related methodologies.
Your PhD program delves deeper than curriculum for the Risk Management Specialization at the Master’s level. This program includes a more extensive research component and broader applications through coursework. The PhD further enriches your research through the process of proposing, writing, and defending a dissertation.
