Field of Study:
The program stresses a balanced approach to the subject. Students are expected to understand the real context within which operational decisions are made, and to develop skills in modeling these problems. The emphasis is on the study of complex, large-scale systems needing integrated solutions.
FIRST YEAR OUTLINE
The first year is designed to provide students solid training in mathematical programming and probalistic modeling, and to develop analytic and research skills while introducing them to the basic issues faced by operations mangers.
Students are expected to achieve an A- or better in five required courses, and achieve a B+ in all other courses. Students will begin pursuing research during the summer of their first year. By the end of the spring term of their first year, students should pick two research questions.
By the end of the summer term of their first year, students should deliver initial drafts of the papers addressing these questions. The initial drafts will be evaluated. Successful completion of the initial drafts requirement constitutes passing the Preliminary Exam.
SECOND YEAR OUTLINE
The second year is novel for doctoral programs in operations management. Students work on two individual research topics in conjunction with the faculty. These papers provide the bridge from class work to research. In addition, students will gain depth in the Operations Management courses and seminars.
THIRD YEAR AND BEYOND
Students continue to take PhD seminars in OMG and should complete all the minor requirements. The students must work with faculty advisors to determine additional courses that might be beneficial to their training.
