Our Vision
The Program of Doctor of Philosophy in International Business Administration envisions a doctoral-level learning experience that increases the knowledge, skills,
and professional ethics of a new generation of business educators and researchers who will function in a diverse, globally competitive environment. Graduates of this
program will be qualified and motivated to advance the body of knowledge as future college faculty and researchers and to expand the frontiers of knowledge through
their research, in a global environment. There will be a synergy between doctoral students and an enthusiastic, student-oriented faculty knowledgeable in their fields
of expertise.
Dr. William C. Gruben currently directs the SSB's Doctoral Program. Dr. Gruben served the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas as vice president, chief international economist
and director of the Dallas Fed's Center for Latin American Economics. His research focuses on international trade, international capital flows, currency regimes and
banking-chiefly as these subjects apply to developing countries, in particular those of Latin America. He has published extensively on these topics in scholarly and
technical journals.
Gruben holds a Ph.D. in economics from the University of Texas at Austin. He worked as a research associate at the university's Institute for Latin American Studies and
