The OID Department seeks to place graduating students in top academic positions around the world. Our recent graduates have taken positions at institutions such as Carnegie Mellon, the University of Chicago, Columbia, Duke, Harvard, INSEAD, London Business School, New York University, Stanford, UC Berkeley, UCLA and the University of Virginia. Unlike many other more narrowly focused departments, we place our graduates in operations, information systems, marketing, management and other disciplines. Demand for business PhD students in our areas of specialization is very strong and the number of job openings far exceeds the number of graduates. Thus, starting salaries continue to grow steadily. As an extra benefit, we have an extensive alumni network that is very active and dedicated to helping new graduates.
