A PhD emphasizing in what field of business? I see a lot of misinformation on Slashdot today based on an equivocal and homogenized definition of business PhDs as graduated MBAs. PhDs save a few pragmatic areas such as Operations Management are destined for academics and research in a specialized area of study. All these careless references to PhDs irrespective of their areas of expertise are akin to lumping Biology, Physics and Chemistry as a Science PhD. For future reference Marketing, Information Systems, Accounting, Management, Finance, HR, etc all have PhD programs with in the business college. Go back to bashing MBAs in the professionally world and criticize PhDs in the correct context to gain some measure of credibility.
