Thank you so much for your replies. The schools in USA look expensive. SKEMA is a nice option. And I will surely check with the school I currently teach at, if they have any specific requirements. Your inputs should help me look in the right direction. Please do let me know if you hear about any other school.. Thanks again!

Hello, I am working as a Marketing Manager in a software firm and am a temporary faculty in a business school in France. To get a permanent academic position at this school, I need to be enrolled in a PhD program and complete it eventually. I want to continue with my job for now and due to my work commitment, I can’t do a full time PhD. Are there any accredited universities that allow enrolment in a PhD program and complete the degree without the requirement of regular full-time coursework and that would allow me to choose a guide and work on my thesis remotely with him. Any advice would be helpful.

Thanks yangyang for your inputs. Highly appreciate. However I needed inputs specifically on the issue mentioned in the first post regarding LORs Do you advice that I get one from my engg. prof on my course work in Comp. programming.

The journal is on Arts and Management and is published from a University in India. However it is not a highly rated one. I am working as a Marketing Manager for one of the biggest technology company. My work mostly revolves around marketing strategy though it also involves lot of pipeline analysis and projections.

Hi, I really really need your help. I would be applying to PhD programs this year to enter a PhD program (Quant) in Fall 2013. Wanted to seek advice on my profile. Undergrad: Engineering (Comp. Sc.) Grad: MBA in Marketing from Top 20 School of India GPAs: Have been decent Letter of Recommendation: I can get two recommendation from my MBA college professors. I did a programming project in my engineering that has gone live. Would a recommendation from the professor in the engineering add value to my profile? Research paper: I have one paper published in a marketing journal. GMAT: Would be taking it in a month or two. I am working as a Marketing Manager and have close to 7 years of experience. With the job in hand it is difficult to get hands-on research experience. Please suggest how can I improve my profile as I still have some time in hand. Thanks!
