Kerron Joseph achieved his lifelong dream of obtaining a doctorate degree this month when he received his Ph.D. in finance from the Carlos Alvarez College of Business at UTSA.

Growing up in the Caribbean, Joseph came to the United States to attend college. After receiving his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in mathematics from Stephen F. Austin University in Nacogdoches, he taught high school for a few years then worked in higher education administration.

While teaching as an adjunct professor at Stephen F. Austin, Joseph realized that while he loved mathematics, his passions kept leading him back to business finance, so he applied to UTSA’s doctoral program.

“After meeting with the faculty, I thought UTSA’s program would challenge me, and I would have the opportunity to grow as a scholar, a researcher, a student and overall, as a person,” said Joseph. “I’ve grown so much in the past five years.”
