Universities in many developing nations seek to enhance their business education programs to support their national economies. One problem often faced by such institutions is a shortage of fully trained doctoral faculty. This paper uses an institutional lens to identify and explore the material and non-material factors that have influenced the efforts of one private university in the Philippines to establish a doctoral program in business. Recommended strategies for addressing these challenges are provided.
