Management
and Organizations
The Management
and Organizations (MORS) faculty at the Kellogg School of
Management has long been considered one of the top research
departments in the world. Its members are known both for the
breadth of topics they pursue and for their in-depth, groundbreaking
research on these topics. Specific areas of strength include:
corporate governance, decision making, negotiations, networks
and alliances, strategic adaptation and change, and team and
group processes. The department’s highly regarded PhD
program produces the faculty of the future who are teaching
at the best business schools around the world and producing
research published in top journals. Doctoral students are
expected to continue this tradition of scholarship.
The MORS
PhD program integrates psychological, sociological and economic
perspectives on the study of organizations and their members.
Faculty and students pursue research on the behavior of individuals,
groups, organizations and groups of organizations with the
goal of advancing theoretical understanding of these phenomena.
The program of study emphasizes the interplay between theory
development and empirical research. The program is designed
to develop the content knowledge and methodological skills
necessary to become a successful and productive scholar. Students
are expected to engage in research projects throughout the
course of graduate study and to complete a series of coursework.

| "The first question I had to ponder before applying to any doctoral program was, “Why a PhD in management and not a career as a consultant or an investment banker?” While it took me a while to get to this conclusion, the answer is very simple: the intellectual adventure. An intellectual adventure that starts with the program itself, and then evolves into a lifelong commitment to learning and personal growth. The choice about the right doctoral program then became simple: I chose the program that would help me build the toolkit of contents and methods to be able to pursue such an adventure. A PhD in management at the Kellogg School offers just that: top-notch researchers who are willing to nurture your own research interests and make you grow. The faculty and the students here at Kellogg encourage you to be yourself and to provide your own unique contribution to management science." |
