CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. (AP) – Campbellsville University will offer its first doctoral program beginning this fall.

University President Michael V. Carter said in a statement that the Ph.D. in management is an “exciting and historic moment” for the private Christian school in central Kentucky.

The program will offer specializations in leadership management, human resource management and cyber technology management.

The school is accepting applications for classes that will begin in August 2017 and January 2018.

Donna Hedgepath, vice president for academic affairs, says more doctoral programs will be introduced in the future.
