Go to each university's academic, and click on their qualifications.
For public uni, UM, UPM, UKM has DBA grads at lecturer.
For private and foreign uni, Sunway, Taylor, Monash got DBA grads as lecturers

Not doubting the quality of DBAs, though they are doctorate degree, Universities, particularly research based, are more favour in PHD candidates... And after been to several DBA and PHD Viva, I can see the differences in term of research skills.. As far as im concerned, Sunway only has one or two DBA lecturers but have vast working experience (e.g, ex regional manager of a MNC company coz retired ady) and MMU so far has none.. not so sure..

DBA thesis stress on practical contributions, whereas PhD is more on theoretical contribution.
The approach is different.

But in general, i agree to your comments on the research quality/

Just wondering to people who have took DBA, is the lecturer generally PhD or they have work experiences and can share more practical knowledge?

I think most universities need both DBA and PhD graduates.
Usually DBA graduate with industry experiences are more capable in teaching MBA clasess
Whereas, Phd graduates are better in research and better in coaching/ supervising students doing research.

hi friends,


i still cant differentiate the role of moderator and mediator.

As far as i could remember,

(I) one is like a TOLL where it will directly affect the DV

(II) one is like REST & RELAX area where it might or it might not affect the DV.


please help me to clarify it

thanks

If u are a researcher u know where to find the answer

unfortunately i m not. jz started it without a proper guidance

And, one of the most important factor for me to select the PhD instead of DBA definitely will be the price matter. In my current Uni, the MBA and the other master management almost the same (my previous batch), as both of the subjects are considered the mixed-mode, and having the dissertation as well, but the price difference is really a big gap..

what s the price diff between PhD and DBA?

DBA 48k, and PhD 16k, diff. will be around 32k, almost can be used to purchase the proton saga....

yeah, a significant different. Probably due to a lot of coursework involved,

Hi, I'm planning to pursue my DBA this year. Which are the few PRIVATE U that anyone here would recommend?

those DBA programs offered by private university college has no credibility, they portray themselves as selling certificates. No convincing research environment, not enough academics with PhD/ DBA qualifications to supervise students. Skip !!

Not recommend any DBA courses offered in Malaysia. Though the best would be UUM... Your cert will not be highly appreciated in overseas and will have little value due to credibility and rigorousity issue of the course..

if you don't intent to go oversea and if you manage to secure a lecturing job in local uni, it's a good deal.

Personally, DBA is not a best bang for buck unless it is from Ivy League or Oxbridge. It is more for researcher wanting to improve business senses without much entrepreneurship experiences (unless you have been in real business or at least management level) and study part time for MBA.

It is sensible to take DBA if you plan to stay in academia or already or plan to be hired by management consultancy giants (BCG, McKinsey)
Then again they won't give much hoot for a DBA from Segi.
