What it takes to have a PhD in business related field?

Question

I am a poli sci grad who is thinking to obtain a MS(not MBA) from Japan. I am interested in entrepreneurship in the digital media industry. I got inspired by my mentor to study about business intensively. With a background in political science (interested in policy making) to go into business related field, does it this sound appealing to you? I just want to make a plan so I can work on it.

preferred people with academic experience (Professor) to answer my question.

Answer 1

I am a business professor, and while I'm not an entrepreneurship specialist, I can tell you that it is probably the greatest growth area in business academia, and there are lots of opportunities for someone like you there. Thee is a greater demand among students than there are qualified faculty in that discipline. The digital media area would be too narrow for teaching, but you could do research in that industry if it interests you. You would definitely need to get a Ph.D., preferably at the best school you can possibly get into, and please make sure that it is, in fact, in business - don't go for a Ph.D.in political science, hoping that if your interest is in policy in entrepreneurship you would be able to get a job in a business school (AACSB, the major business school accrediting organization, requires that most faculty must have terminal degrees in the subject matter that they are teaching).

Answer 2

It's a relative question if you like business studies and would be happy growing old applying your studies than it would be worth your time, money and effort. If you enjoy it and are passionate about it then it will come naturally. You are the right person to complete your own plan nobody knows you like you so construct a plan that fills your needs and schedule. I am a business student as well and yes it does sound appealing to me but that is your plan and your question so you figure it out. I just felt like i could comment because i have a similar backround. :D have fun.
