Research
at the Sloan
School relates
to effective
management
of manufacturing
and service
enterprises,
public and
urban systems,
and health
and medical
services.
Faculty research
interests
span a wide
range of topics,
including
behavioral
science, business
strategy,
management
of technology,
industrial
relations,
international
management,
applied economics,
finance, accounting,
marketing,
information
technology,
operations
management,
and operations
research.
Many projects
are interdisciplinary
and typically
involve empirical
studies (data
collection
and analysis),
modeling,
and developing
new methodologies.
Students should directly
contact faculty working
in areas of mutual interest.
After a faculty-student
relationship has been established,
students must write a proposal
and submit an online UROP application by the term's submission deadline.
