Abstract: Most schools of engineering and business today have not yet come to terms with the growing inter-disciplinary education needs that adequately prepare PhD graduates for assuming leadership, professional, academic and/or research positions in academia, industry or government. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of how to develop an innovative inter-disciplinary PhD degree programme by presenting a case study in technology management at the University of Bridgeport. The proposed PhD programme is currently undergoing an external review process. The paper will describe the purpose, structure, and approach of the proposed PhD programme as well as the challenges, lessons learned and critical success factors.
