Introduction
The doctoral program in Organization Development (OD) is an outgrowth of the master’s level program at Benedictine University which was one of the first graduate Organizational Behavior programs in the country. It focuses on the importance of leadership and management of change to better understand how to address global trends and emerging problems. It prepares advanced professionals with state-of-the-art doctoral education and is a rigorous, Higher Learning Commission accredited doctoral program. The program offers a unique combination of research, theory, practice, and action-based learning to equip students with the knowledge and skills needed to lead strategically within organizations and at the intersection of business and society.
The coursework is designed for organization development professionals who perceive the management of change and the creation of high-performance organizations as central parts of their careers. The program is designed to be completed in three years as a full-time program integrated with and complementary to full-time work activities. It is tailored to meet the exacting standards and demanding schedules of senior leaders who work full-time. To accommodate those who commute from long distances both nationally and internationally, classes are held on weekends. Benedictine University is about a 30-minute drive from Chicago’s O’Hare and Midway airports. The first two years of the Ph.D. in Organization Development program curriculum is devoted to coursework.
The first year courses concentrate on setting the tone and developing sensitivity to the role of organization development and leadership within the applied behavioral sciences. Coursework topics focus on the empirical research that helps us understand behavior at all levels – self, interpersonal, teams, organizations, inter-organizational, and society. Heavy emphasis is placed on the philosophy of science, the development of research skills,and organization research and theory.
At the end of the first-year students must choose a concentration in either of two areas: (1) Organization Change or (2) Values-Driven Leadership. Each concentration involves five courses that provide further in-depth study of OD or Values-Driven Leadership.
Organizational Change Concentration:
This concentration places organization development within management and the strategic role of human resources. The curriculum is devoted to the development of a core of organization development competencies and selected, advanced topics courses covering state-of-the-art interventions. Organizational theory and research comprise much of the concentrations coursework.
Values-Driven Leadership Concentration:
This concentration focuses on values-driven leadership –the theory and practice of leading profitable, sustainable, and responsible companies in today’s global economy. The concentration equips students to become thought-leaders who inform business and society by leading at four levels: personal, interpersonal, organizational and global.
Rounding out the second year of coursework for both concentrations are classes in qualitative and quantitative research methods that are offered to assist students in preparing their dissertation research and proposals.
During the third-year students work with OD faculty and their dissertation committees to tailor their research and writing to help advance the student’s career and individual goals. This results in a defended dissertation based on original research. Additionally, students receive credit for an international experience by attending an international academic conference or other international experience with a faculty member
The Ph.D. in Organization Development program prepares management professionals, academics, and executives with state-of-the-art education. Built on a 50-year history of successful graduate-level OD education, this program is intended for those persons with extensive experience, who currently hold responsible positions either in the field of organization development or human resource management, or have executive leadership experience. It is a three-year program, consisting of a first year of context courses, a second year covering some core OD knowledge or Values Driven Leadership topics and a third year consisting of an international experience and the completion of a dissertation. The doctoral degree in Organization Development at Benedictine University was one of the first graduate OD programs in the country. The Ph.D in Values-Driven Leadership was the first scholar-practitioner program in the world focusing explicitly on values-driven leadership.

Dissertation:
While the program is a three-year initiative, the dissertation is designed to be integrated throughout all years of study. Students are encouraged to begin reviewing dissertation possibilities upon being accepted into the program and to continue to explore and develop dissertation topics throughout their coursework. Students are encouraged to select topics consistent with the major research themes within the program. It is expected that research topics be selected during the first year as part of the initial research course. During the second year, it would be expected that papers be presented at local or regional professional meetings as part of the learning and feedback process. In the final year of the program, during completion of the dissertation, students would be expected to present their work at national meetings and submit papers for publication.

This organizational leadership Ph.D. program teaches you how to communicate organizational objectives and strategy to make business processes as effective and efficient as possible. Graduates will critically evaluate and synthesize relevant research and theory in their exploration of organizational leadership.

The qualifying paper requirement - Both micro-organizational behavior and sociology require all students to submit a qualifying paper by the end of the third year of study.
The dissertation is the final research requirement.
Teaching Requirement
Students must teach or assist with teaching in a formally offered course for one full academic term. This engagement should include, at least, 8 hours of front-of-class teaching and 16 hours of teaching preparation time. The requirement may be fulfilled by completing a teaching fellow or instructor assignment at a Harvard University.
Examinations & Reviews
The dossier review (micro-organizational behavior) - The students undergo a dossier review by a faculty committee. The dossier consists of the qualifying paper, at least two other research papers, and a statement about future plans for research.
The discipline examination (sociology) - The student takes the written examination offered by the department, following procedures and on the schedule set by the department.
The organizational behavior examination (both tracks) - This examination comes after all doctoral coursework has been completed. It provides an excellent occasion for the student to draw on all of his or her training to demonstrate readiness for first-rate conceptual and empirical work on organizational phenomena.
The Dissertation
Prospectus: When the student has satisfactorily completed all other requirements, a dissertation prospectus is written and a prospectus committee is formed (consisting of at least three members; Micro-organizational behavior track committees must include at least two Harvard faculty having ladder appointments, at least one of whom must be from HBS; Sociology track committees must include at least one member from the HBS faculty and at least one from the FAS faculty).
When that committee feels that the prospectus is ready for formal review, the prospectus meeting is held. If the committee is satisfied that the student is ready to begin data collection, the members will approve the prospectus. The prospectus committee normally continues as the student’s dissertation committee once the prospectus is approved.
Dissertation: The dissertation provides an opportunity for students to demonstrate, in a work wholly their own, their ability to contribute creatively to the advancement of knowledge about organizational behavior. When the student and the dissertation committee agree that the dissertation is acceptable, a dissertation defense is scheduled. It is expected that a dissertation will be approved unanimously by the dissertation committee. If the dissertation committee should find itself deadlocked about the acceptability of a dissertation, it will inform the Policy and Admissions Committee about the extent and the basis of the disagreement, and work with the PAC to resolve the matter.
Normal Progress Toward the Degree
By the end of the first year, students should have completed most discipline coursework and the research apprenticeship requirement. Sociology track students should complete the sociology written general exam at the end of the first year (summer).
By the end of the second year, students should have completed all doctoral course requirements, and the organizational behavior examination.
By the end of the third year, students should have completed all required courses, the qualifying paper, and all examinations and reviews.
By the middle of the fourth year, students should have the dissertation prospectus approved.
Students are expected to complete all degree requirements, including the dissertation, in five years. Students will be required to withdraw from the program if they have not completed the qualifying paper by the end of the third year, or if they have not completed the dissertation prospectus by the end of the fifth year.

The Unique Burial of a Child of Early Scythian Time at the Cemetery of Saryg-Bulun (Tuva)
<< Previous page
Pages: 379-406
In 1988, the Tuvan Archaeological Expedition (led by M. E. Kilunovskaya and V. A. Semenov) discovered a unique burial of the early Iron Age at Saryg-Bulun in Central Tuva. There are two burial mounds of the Aldy-Bel culture dated by 7th century BC. Within the barrows, which adjoined one another, forming a figure-of-eight, there were discovered 7 burials, from which a representative collection of artifacts was recovered. Burial 5 was the most unique, it was found in a coffin made of a larch trunk, with a tightly closed lid. Due to the preservative properties of larch and lack of air access, the coffin contained a well-preserved mummy of a child with an accompanying set of grave goods. The interred individual retained the skin on his face and had a leather headdress painted with red pigment and a coat, sewn from jerboa fur. The coat was belted with a leather belt with bronze ornaments and buckles. Besides that, a leather quiver with arrows with the shafts decorated with painted ornaments, fully preserved battle pick and a bow were buried in the coffin. Unexpectedly, the full-genomic analysis, showed that the individual was female. This fact opens a new aspect in the study of the social history of the Scythian society and perhaps brings us back to the myth of the Amazons, discussed by Herodotus. Of course, this discovery is unique in its preservation for the Scythian culture of Tuva and requires careful study and conservation.
Keywords: Tuva, Early Iron Age, early Scythian period, Aldy-Bel culture, barrow, burial in the coffin, mummy, full genome sequencing, aDNA
