Overview

Students in the Analytics, Information and Operations program from University of Kansas begin their own research during the first year of the program and often present to faculty and other doctoral students early in their second year. Many of these papers are eventually published in academic journals.

Teaching

Part of our mission is to develop effective teachers. To that end, all doctoral students are required to teach at least two sections as independent instructors.

The school and university prepare and reward doctoral students for excellence in teaching through various programs and awards.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

The program is designed for students who wish to become tenure-track scholars and scholar-teachers.

Our program is selective and rigorous, yet it provides a collegial, supportive, and intellectually stimulating atmosphere for original research and effective teaching by providing mastery of the knowledge in a particular field, a thorough understanding of research methodology, the ability to communicate effectively, and the motivation for continuing self-education.

Students must specialize in a concentration and develop a broad knowledge of other areas of business and their interrelationships in the management function.

The program is limited in size so each student can work closely with faculty members to receive substantial individual attention.
