The Executive DBA

The EADA and Le CNAM Executive DBA is a three-year executive doctoral programme, taught entirely in English, which focuses on providing scientific research knowledge and skills to enable participants to solve complex business problems and make decisions based on scientific evidence.  The programme's tailored approach also attracts professionals from a wide range of industries who want to contribute to innovative research in their chosen field of study.

The programme is designed for professionals with a senior profile who wish to take a further step in their careers, opening up opportunities for management or consultancy positions, academia or entrepreneurship. "The programme equips participants with the skills, knowledge and research competencies necessary to excel in their careers, contribute to the academic community and make a significant impact on the business world", says Dr. Bruno Cohanier, Programme Co-Director.

New partnership between EADA and Le CNAM

The launch of the new Executive DBA at EADA Barcelona is made possible by this collaboration agreement with Le CNAM, a leading French educational institution, founded in Paris in 1794, with more than 750 programmes, including doctorates, and more than 50,000 students per year. It also has 180 academic centres and 22 research laboratories where interdisciplinary research is carried out on major societal challenges.


The first edition of the EADA Executive DBA will start in April 2024 and will combine online sessions with 8 residential modules that will take place throughout the programme in both Barcelona and Paris.
