About the Program
The program is a full-time course of study, designed primarily to prepare candidates for an academic career. Students begin active research at an early stage, working with faculty mentors throughout the program. Most students take four to five years to complete degree requirements and defend their dissertation (depending on the student’s background and progress). Academic and research interests include behavioral science, finance and capital markets, marketing, operations, management of science and technological innovation, and applied economics and strategy.
