Management of Organizations

The mission of the department is to be a leading intellectual center for management and organization research in the Asia-Pacific region. To this end it continues to recruit and retain the brightest minds from around the world. It provides its students with the necessary training and preparation for them to become responsible and responsive professionals. It also works with local business leaders to identify and address pressing management problems through research, consultation and involvement in community activities.

Recognizing its unique position in the region where the notion of East meets West is epitomized, the department adopts a two-pronged strategy to develop global business knowledge and also accentuate its edge in building local expertise. First, the department encourages and supports its faculty to pursue their diverse research interests. Second, the department also makes concerted efforts to develop its strength in research on management and organization in the Chinese context.

The department’s faculty members are renowned for high-quality, cutting-edge research, and have published their work in the best management journals, such as the Academy of Management Journal (AMJ), the Administrative Science Quarterly (ASQ), the Academy of Management Review (AMR), the Journal of Applied Psychology (JAP), Organization Science (OS), and the Strategic Management Journal (SMJ).

The goal of the department’s PhD program is to develop outstanding scholars who are able to teach in major research universities in Asia and around the world, and who are able to become major contributors to the frontiers of management knowledge by publishing their work in the best management journals.

Our program provides solid training in the theory and methods of various fields of management such as human resource management and strategic management. Apart from rigorous course work, students gain hands-on experience in the research process through working with faculty members on research projects from the early stages of their study. Thus, the program offers students a highly stimulating learning environment and enables them to cultivate first-tier research skills to pursue academic excellence.
