Research Community
Harvard Business School invests more than $170 million in research annually—more than any other school. These funds give researchers at the School the freedom, flexibility, and independence to pursue groundbreaking research, wherever it may lead.
Innovative Research, Lasting Relationships
Students study business in motion, with all the variables operating at once and, like the companies they study, are not limited by traditional academic boundaries. Students acquire knowledge and research skills leading to mastery of a field of study and learn through experience to design and execute a major piece of original scholarly work.
The School’s global connections and reputation give doctoral students access to industry, academia, government, and other organizations and institutions worldwide. A far-reaching network of regional resource centers is a vital element in the creation of the School’s intellectual capital.
Research Resources
The research and teaching resources at Harvard are unmatched by any other school. Students can make use of virtually any methodology required to pursue their research interests, including field studies, large-scale statistical databases, consumer panel research, behavioral experiments, and theoretical and empirical models.
Wyss House
Closer to home, the doctoral community often convenes at the Wyss House for study groups and social gatherings where students exchange ideas and build lifelong friendships. The Wyss House is named in honor of Hansjoerg Wyss, MBA 1965, and his gift of $25 million in support of the HBS Doctoral Programs.
