Management Science
About Management Science
The DeGroote PhD in Management Science provides you with opportunities to study the development and application of quantitative modelling, and create systematic approaches to solve management problems. These techniques are used in operations management, logistics, and supply chain management applications.
This specialization emphasizes research and is designed to prepare highly motivated and capable individuals to make significant advances in management science knowledge.
Successful applicants typically have a master’s degree in business administration, mathematics, engineering, science or computer science.
