Thesis, Research Topics. Doctorate Religions and Business

In the Doctorate admission process, Doctorate Supervisor will assign a tutor to the Doctoral Student, who will be the responsible to coordinate the student activities in the doctoral program.

Furthermore, a Thesis Supervisor (director) is assigned. Thesis Supervisor will guide the student in thesis planning; he is the ultimately responsible for the consistency and novelty of the thesis.

Thesis Supervisor can be selected by the student from the EENI Global Business School team of doctors or freely by the student if he/she has a doctoral degree. The Tutor and Supervisor (Director) can match. Co-direction of the thesis is also allowed.

Research Work and Thesis Plan (40 ECTS).

With Thesis Supervisor (Director) support, Doctoral Student must perform the appropriate research that will lead to the realization of his thesis plan. Doctoral Student must prepare and submit a thesis plan, which, as a minimum, should include the provisional thesis title, objectives pursued, methodology to be used, means and schedule.

Doctoral Student of the Doctorate must study the “Research methodology” module, which will introduce to the thesis preparation method.

Thesis and Thesis Defense (120 ECTS).

Under the supervision of Thesis Supervisor, Doctoral Student develops and presents the research results. Doctoral Student can select their subject areas within the research parameters proposed by EENI, creating a thesis that must be completely original and own, which will be published on the EENI platform set up for this purpose.

The Directorate may authorise the thesis deposit like a compendium of publications if the requirements established by the Directorate are fulfilled.
