STEM-designated<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A research-oriented PhD program in which you\u2019ll develop from an academic apprentice into an academic scholar under the guidance of top-flight faculty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your interest in the PhD in Management Science.  Due to recent short-term budget constraints, we are suspending admission to this program for Fall 2026 and Spring 2027. The next admissions will be made for Fall 2027, and applications are due February 1, 2027.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the Lubar College of Business, successfully completing the PhD under an \u201capprenticeship\u201d model will be extremely rewarding to your career as a scholar. This STEM-designated program will provide the independent research skills you need to keep yourself at the leading edge of scholarship and to prepare you for success in academia or a research-related career. Also, you will develop relationships with your faculty and other PhD students that will last for years to come. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to your doctoral coursework, you will have the opportunity to gain cutting-edge knowledge at the Lubar College\u2019s research colloquia, present your own research, have informal discussions with faculty, work with others on research projects, and interact with other PhD students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Admitted students are fully funded for the first four years with a financial package of $23,000 per year and a tuition waiver. Your financial support comes with a project or teaching assistantship, which enables you to receive valuable research or teaching experience in your field of study. After your first year here, you can also apply for Lubar scholarships, worth up to $5,000. As part of your assistantship package, you will also be eligible to enroll for low-cost health insurance for yourself and your spouse.<\/p>\n\n\n
