Doctor of Philosophy [Ph.D] [Accounting] From Emory University

The doctoral program in accounting examines the production and use of information through the lens of theories adapted from the social sciences, especially economics and psychology. The emphasis is on coursework in microeconomics, econometrics, statistics, and doctoral seminars in accounting. Alternative programs can be designed for students with different research interests such as human decision-making and the use of information. Such programs typically substitute significant coursework in psychology for courses in economics.
