I truly enjoyed my time in Aarhus and the PhD program successfully set me on the academic journey I had always dreamed of.
The Management PhD program at Aarhus School of Business and Social Science is highly recommendable for two key exceptional reasons. Firstly, the research environment at the Department of Management is very supportive and encouraging for young researchers. During my PhD, I received every support I needed to explore my diverse research interests around social and environmental issues in management research. Especially, the exchange program and the generous support to attend international conferences helped me to make important connections with leading scholars in my research field.
In addition to the world-class PhD education, Denmark is a great place to live.
The Danes’ politeness and the warmness everywhere, made me feel home immediately after I arrived in Aarhus as a foreign Master student. At Aarhus School of Business and Social Science, I found my personal happy place, where I received lots of positive reinforcement from my fellow PhDs as well as faculty and staff at the Department of Management, which made me truly enjoy my PhD journey.
Overall, pursuing my PhD at the Department of Management, at Aarhus School of Business and Social Science, was a very valuable experience, which I will be always thankful for.
