Welcome to the website of the HEC PhD program

Recognized as one of the world’s leading business schools, HEC has offered doctoral training since 1975 to candidates eager to become professor-researchers with strong scientific capabilities.

Our doctoral program fosters originality in thought, innovation, and the ability to conduct solid, publishable research. The expertise and dynamism of HEC faculty members gradually trains our PhD candidates to this effect.

Institutions are facing strong competition in recruiting and employing PhD graduates. This is why entering the demanding world of a professor-researcher requires strong preparation and permanent commitment, under the guidance of the PhD office and HEC professors.

Recognized by the French Ministry of Higher Education and Research, our PhD program gives future professor-researchers the preparation needed to publish in leading academic journals throughout the world and face the future research and teaching challenges.
