I have here compiled a list of top PhD programs in strategic management in Canada and Europe. I sincerely thank Sophia Wright for this recommendation. These rankings are based on faculty publications in 6 top journals, namely, Academy of Management Review, Academy of Management Journal, Strategic Management Journal, Administrative Science Quarterly, Journal of International Business Studies, and Organization Science as reported by the Jindal School at UT Dallas. I encourage all readers to go to the Jindal School website and explore the rankings further with the wonderful online tool.
