Evaluating profile for "PhD in Strategy and Business Economics

[Makumajon]

Dear Forum Members:

Good day! I am planning to pursue PhD in Strategy and Business Economics from Fall 2009, preferably in a US/Canadian university. Could you please suggest me prospective universities based on my brief profile as shown below?

* B.Sc. in Electrical and Electrical Engineering, CGPA 3:48/4.00
* MBA in Finance, CGPA 3.50/4.00
[both are Bangladeshi institutes, top in their respective engineering and business education field]
* 3 years intensive work experience in strategy, business analysis and planning, investment decision, financial modeling
* Planning to take GMAT soon, expecting 750+
* Several articles: a business article by ITU, others on engineering- including one by IEEE

Regards,

I think there are not so many business economics programs, except UCLA, Harvard and Stanford.

Thanks. I have also interest on MIS or Operations Management. I would be happy to get a general assessment of my profile when it comes about pursuing PhD.
