"After doing an extensive search for part-time PhD programs, I found that the Executive PhD at AMS is the most flexible for full-time employees who wish to pursue their studies. In addition, all the team members, from the director to the coach, professors, program managers and administrative staff are very supportive and always do their best to facilitate students’ progress. One more important part are the program modules. The knowledge and guidance we get from the lecturing professors are very beneficial and help me to find the right directions in the research oceans where I frequently feel lost. Everyone in the team is willing and happy to help. And for all the above mentioned reasons, I’m so glad that I made the correct choice."

"After having gained ample experience in the corporate world, an executive position is a hindrance to stepping into research-focused programs. Nevertheless, the design of the AMS Executive PhD offers flexibility as well as the opportunity to develop your academic expertise while still successfully maintaining your full-time role.
A congregation of senior executives from around the globe with valuable cultural diversification enriches the academic input provided by the program and provides a tangible, solid variety of corporate experiences.
To orchestrate all this together, a dedicated, driven, and professional team supports you from start to finish with backup tailored to your individual progress level.
Now halfway through the program, I have been passionately enjoying every step of this journey while being consistently mentored to successfully reach my ultimate objective."
