Business Administration (Ph.D.)

Program information.

For the Ph.D. in Business Administration, students must have a concentration in one of the following:

• Information Systems and Operation Management
• Quantitative Finance
• Real Estate and Urban Analysis

Minimum requirements for the various departments and specialties are given in the Graduate Degrees section in this catalog.

All candidates for the Ph.D. in business administration must satisfy the following general requirements:

Breadth requirement: All applicants for Ph.D. in the business administration program are expected to have completed prior business-related course work at either the advanced undergraduate or graduate level. Students entering without prior work are required to take a minimum of three graduate courses in at least two fields other than their chosen area of concentration. Most often, the appropriate courses will be found in the M.B.A. first-year core; the particular courses to be taken by a student will be decided in consultation with the student’s academic adviser. After a student enters the Ph.D. program, the courses taken to satisfy the breadth requirement must be taken in the College of Business Administration.

Research foundations requirement: All students must complete a six-course research skills sequence that prepares them for scholarly research in their chosen area of concentration. Research foundations are defined as essential methodological tools (e.g., statistics, quantitative analysis) and/or substantive content domains (e.g., psychology, economics) outside the student’s major field that are considered essential to conducting high quality research in the chosen field. The specific research skills required by each area of concentration can be found in the field descriptions in this Catalog.

Other requirements include satisfactory completion of graduate course work in the major field of concentration, as well as one or two minor fields designed to add depth to the student’s research training. Minors are selected by the student in consultation with their advisory committee, and may be within or outside the College of Business Administration.

University of Florida denies appeal of pro-Palestinian student protester's suspension

The University of Florida has denied the appeal of a graduate student who was suspended for three years following pro-Palestinian protests in the spring, a national free expression group has announced.

“As a public school, the University of Florida has a duty to mete out punishment in a viewpoint-neutral manner," Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression attorney Jessie Appleby said in a Wednesday statement.

"The draconian response from UF and its refusal to reconsider the facts of these cases suggest that these students are being targeted for their beliefs, not their individual conduct," Appleby continued. "That’s a clear First Amendment violation.”

The student in question, Keely Gliwa , was supposed to graduate in May with a master’s degree in biochemistry and molecular biology. But that all changed when she decided to participate in a pro-Palestinian protest in late April.

"Keely was hit with disciplinary charges for failing to immediately disperse when police broke up the protest," FIRE wrote in a press release. "But video and witness testimony backed up Keely’s story that she only stayed behind to help another student who was in distress."

She was one of nine people arrested during the campus protest. Various charges included failure to obey police, resisting arrest without violence, wearing a hood or mask on public property and trespassing. One student accused of spitting on a police officer was charged with felony battery.

University officials said they had repeatedly warned protesters to disperse the area or face arrest.

"The University of Florida is not a daycare, and we do not treat protesters like children — they knew the rules, they broke the rules, and they'll face the consequences," said UF spokesman Steve Orlando in a statement at the time.

But Fresh Take Florida reported that a university hearing body recommended Gliwa only get probation. In closed-door hearings, that was overruled by the new dean of students, Chris Summerlin.

Gliwa, in a statement, said she was "deeply disappointed."

"This battle is not over and I will continue to fight, not just for myself, but to ensure that future students will not be victimized by the university for speaking out about the ongoing genocide in Gaza," she said.

FIRE says it's also working with students Parker Hovis and Tess Segal, who like Gliwa received recommendations of light punishment that were overruled by Summerlin. UF also denied their appeals, according to FIRE.

Tensions have been high on college campuses across Florida and the nation since Hamas' Oct. 7 attack  on Israel and the resultant conflict that has leveled wide swaths of Gaza.

The appeal denial is the latest example of how Gov. Ron DeSantis and state higher education officials have  taken strict action  against pro-Palestinian protesters accused of breaking any law or university rule.

UF representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The USA TODAY Network-Florida sent public records requests to UF in early May for records regarding its response to the protest. The university still lists those requests as "in progress."
