The Management Program admits five students annually in preparation for research and teaching careers in the management sciences and related fields of business administration. The program equips future leaders with the conceptual framework and specific skills needed to be successful in business administration. Students take the required courses of Accounting, Finance, Operations Research, Marketing Science, Management Information, Risk Management, Corporate Investment, Financial Engineering, and Statistics. Additionally, students must rotate through the various economics fields and receive passing evaluations for their Ph.D. theses to earn a Ph.D. in Business Administration or Ph.D. in Economics. Graduates of the program obtain positions with universities and business enterprises.

The Graduate School of Economics at Osaka University features a systematic curriculum that allows students to choose from the two disciplines of economics and business administration. Following the tradition of practical learning, the emphasis is placed on quantitative methods (statistical analysis and information processing) to promote empirical education and research. Courses are offered in small classes, one of the school's most attractive features.

The Graduate School of Economics offers two major programs: Economics and Management. The Economics Program features the study of modern economic systems in which creativity and logic are important foundations. The Management Program emphasizes corporate management based on a scientific and pragmatic approach.
