The UB School of Management provides a unique opportunity for innovation and distinctiveness by bringing together the areas of strategic management and supply chains and operations management.

The operations management and strategy major in the Management PhD program offers two tracks:

  • Supply Chains and Operations Management (SCOM)
  • Strategic Management (Business Policy, Entrepreneurship and International Business)

Both tracks develop students into high-quality researchers, educators and consultants, enabling them to emerge as influential scholars in their chosen fields. Working closely with our faculty members, our doctoral candidates receive individual training in state-of-the-art research methods and teaching skills. All our doctoral scholars publish articles in leading journals and several of our doctoral candidates have won prestigious national awards for their dissertation research.
