Doctor of Management (D.M. or D.Mgt.) is an academic degree awarded on the basis of advanced study and research in management.[1]
The D.M. degree is awarded by some American and international universities, and is similar to a PhD degree in management and business-related sciences. To be admitted as a doctoral student, one typically must hold a Master's degree and pass a comprehensive entrance exam. The student must complete necessary course work, teach examinable courses, perform independent research under supervision of a qualified doctoral advisor, and pass a thesis defense. The D.M. may take four years (full time) to complete and has compulsory taught components and coursework/projects.
