IIM Udaipur - Best MBA colleges in india

The Operations Management (OM) Area is a division within the OMQMIS Area at IIM Udaipur (IIMU) and offers its own PhD program. Begun in 2017, the OM PhD was the second PhD program to have been offered at IIMU. The OM PhD program at IIMU offers students the chance to pursue their doctoral studies in a wide gamut of interest areas related to Supply Chain Management (SCM) and Operations Management using a variety of analytical and empirical methodologies.

The years of experience and the collective talents of the highly accomplished faculty members in the OM Area ensure that the students receive rigorous research training that is unparalleled in the country. The OM Area faculty members are a highly motivated group themselves and always strive to publish their work in the most reputed international journals both within and outside the domain of operations management.

They have published in journals of the highest international repute such as Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of Operations Management, and Production and Operations Management , to name a few. As such, the students are also motivated to develop and work on the same lofty publication aspirations as those of the OM Area faculty members. If you are interested in pursuing an intellectually stimulating and rigorous PhD in either SCM or OM or interdisciplinary issues which interface with SCM/OM, followed by an academically rewarding career, then the OM PhD program at IIM Udaipur must be your goal! We look forward to guiding your transformation here!

Iimb institutional review board (irb).

The Doctoral Programme in Production and Operations Management addresses research issues related to manufacturing, services, and technology management. Specific themes, among others, for research include the following: Sustainable Operations, IT Services and Electronic, supply Chain Management, Manufacturing and Service Strategy, Healthcare and Services, Technology Strategy, Sourcing and Procurement, and Logistics Management. Faculty and students also engage with the Supply Chain Management Centre at IIMB.

Research Overview

Prof. Rajeev R. Tripathi explains how IIMB empowers PhD students to grow into independent and competent researchers. He talks about current research in strategic sourcing and procurement decision in supply chain, behavioural operations, sustainable operations, agricultural supply chain management and more.

Research Spotlight

In my thesis, I develop game-theoretic models to analyze the intensity of advertisements under browser settings that use ad-blocking mechanisms and only allow ads that follow a set of rules and do not cause discomfort to users. I also analyze whether government bodies should regulate the choice of ad-blocking mechanisms

My thesis topic is ‘Impact of battery energy storage system on electricity generation through renewable and non-renewable energy sources’. My work finds that balancing penalties act as a significant factor in preventing energy markets from the damaging effects of arbitrage and aggravated imbalances

The key focus area of my research is to analyze the impact of supplier innovativeness in a supply chain network on the firm’s innovation, and how different types of buyer-supplier relationships impact the innovation of the firm. I use different empirical and analytical modelling tools to generate insights into how global supply chains work, and how firms need to design their supply base portfolio

Vision of the Programme

image

The objective of the Doctoral Programme in Management is to equip students with necessary skills to identify and carry out research on complex issues in a specialized field of management. The programme is strongly committed to preparing thought leaders, both for the academic and corporate world. Graduates of the Doctoral Programme in Management are placed in world class organizations in teaching, research and consulting positions. A total of 471 doctoral students have graduated from IIMA so far.

The Doctoral Programme in Management seeks candidates with outstanding academic credentials, intellectual curiosity and discipline needed to make scholarly contributions that advance the frontiers of knowledge. It provides a diverse set of opportunities for interdisciplinary learning and research. The student opts for one of eleven functional/sectoral areas and acquires super specialized theoretical knowledge and mastery of practical aspects of the area.

The small class size allows close interaction with faculty members, who provide the intellectual stimulus and help develop the student's research interests and professional goals. Students generally spend a little over four years to complete their Ph.D. which includes two years of rigorous course work.

Course work in the first year provides a general management overview and develops basic skills for analyzing managerial problems. In the second year, students take advanced Doctoral courses in their areas of high levels of specialization. After completing the course work, students have to pass an area comprehensive examination to demonstrate that they have reached a level of proficiency in the area of high levels of specialization.  The Ph.D. dissertation, for the next couple of years, provides them with an opportunity to make original contribution to an area of management or to one of its source disciplines. Students admitted to the Doctoral Programme in Management receive a comprehensive fellowship that covers all costs and in addition provides a modest living allowance.

Atul Karwasara Year of Joining: 2018, Area: Strategy

Ph.D. in innovation and management in education is offered only in IIM A across India, and this unique interdisciplinary course of management and education provides ample opportunity to research in the diverse field within the education sector. The option to choose multiple courses from different management sub-disciplines during coursework in the Ph.D. programme at IIM A has helped me broaden my understanding and knowledge about management education and research. Ph.D. programme at IIM A provides a unique platform in terms of the diverse cohort to hone research skills as the mix of qualitative and quantitative researchers help and support each other in mutual and shared learning.

Nirved Kumar Year of Joining: 2020, Area: RJMCEI

My experience with IIM A, till now, can be summarized in three words - rigour, learning, and development. The coursework is vast and intense. I would admit that the first year of coursework has helped me take a quantum leap into the world of academics. The faculty members are extremely supportive and patient. Additionally, there is ample scope, here, to pursue one’s extra-curricular interests. The community is very tightly knit and my batch profile is so diverse that the past one year was peppered with numerous instances of peer learning - academic as well as non-academic.

How to Get a PhD or DBA in Operations Management

Operations management gets to the heart of business administration: the efficient production of goods and services. Ever since Henry Ford invented the factory assembly line, business leaders have been searching for ways to streamline production processes and optimize the use of resources.

A doctoral degree in business with a specialization in operations management prepares you to contribute to the advancement of business and manufacturing logistics, either as an academic thought leader or as a business scholar-practitioner. The online PhD in operations management represents the top academic qualifications in the field. Completing either of these doctoral degrees requires discipline and careful planning from the outset. This guide takes you through the application process step by step, from developing a career goal to finding the doctoral program that matches your ambitions. Use it alongside The Insider’s College Guide for Working Adults, WorldWideLearn.com’s general guide to college education for professionals.

A Guide to PhD and DBA Programs in Operations Management

The field of operations management brings together industrial engineering, system dynamics, statistics, and business administration. As a doctoral student you’ll have the opportunity to work with leading operations management innovators to optimize today’s production logistics.

Specializations

A doctoral degree in operations management affords the opportunity to conduct original research in your particular field of interest. Each program features its own ecosystem of research specializations, influenced by the school’s traditions, industry alliances, and most importantly, its resident faculty experts. The online PhD and DBA in operations management offers the opportunity to specialize in areas such as:

  • Production and Operations Management (POM)
  • Operations Research (OR)
  • Management Science (MS)
  • Industrial Engineering
  • Inventory Management
  • Supply Chain Management
  • Decision Analysis
  • Industrial Risk Management
  • Quality Management

Collaborative research with faculty is an important feature of both the PhD and DBA in operations management. A sense of your academic interests can help you identify research mentors and programs in line with your intellectual and career ambitions.

PhD and DBA Degrees in Operations Management

Business schools offer two degrees at the doctoral level: the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and the Doctor of Business Administration (DBA). The right degree for you depends largely on your career goals.

A campus or online PhD in operations management reflects the characteristics of a traditional social science doctorate. The degree emphasizes original scholarly research that advances operations management theory. The PhD is the right choice if you aspire to an academic career as a professor, scholarly expert, or business school faculty instructor.

An online DBA in operations management tracks the PhD program requirements but shifts the research focus from theoretical to applied research. The DBA is designed for professional practitioners who want to “execute research-based business strategies within an organization or business.” The program, which attracts working professionals, encourages students to develop research projects that address a real-world business problem.

Over time, the distinctions between the PhD and DBA have become blurry–some PhD programs have shifted toward applied research, while many DBA programs encourage students to participate in theoretical and academic discourse.

Career Tracks

Doctoral graduates may pursue either an academic or a professional practice career track. Academic PhD degrees generally produce academic professors and researchers. A BusinessWeek report estimates that two-thirds of PhD students pursue an academic career. The remaining third go on to high-level consulting or executive positions in the private sector. Online professional PhD and DBA graduates generally head into industry jobs. In fact, many online doctoral students are mid-career professionals looking to advance from a manager position into a leadership or business consultant role. Focusing your career goals will help you prepare for a successful PhD or DBA experience. To explore your operations management career options further, consult online resources such as the Department of Labor’s Occupational Outlook Handbook .

How to Apply for PhD and DBA Programs in Operations Management

Developing a sense of your research interests and career goals offers a solid foundation for the next step in your journey toward a doctoral degree in operations management: applying to a school.

How to Choose a Program

With a clear vision to guide you, choosing a school becomes a matter of matching your preferences with available campus or online PhD and DBA programs. With hundreds of business schools to choose from, however, the process can be daunting. The Internet offers an array of resources to help you research your options, such as an overview of online PhD and DBA degrees.

This step-by-step guide walks you through the research process, with links to useful online resources.

Step One: Find Accredited PhD and DBA Programs in Operations Management

Begin the research process by compiling a list of accredited PhD and DBA programs in operations management. Accreditation is an essential qualification of any higher education institution. An independent agency conducts periodic evaluations of its member institutions as a means of validating its academic quality. Accreditation means you can trust the value of your degree–and qualify for important programs such as federal financial aid.

The U.S. Department of Education posts a comprehensive list of approved regional and international accreditation agencies.

WorldWideLearn.com represents a number of colleges and universities that meet its quality criteria. Browse a list of accredited education partners.

The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) , the premier international accreditation authority, represents nearly 600 member institutions worldwide. You can access an online database of the AACSB’s participating schools. This comprehensive list allows you to search based on campus or online delivery format, location, program of study, and degree level.

Step Two: Select a Campus or Online Program Format

Your current life circumstances and future career plans are likely to dictate which program format is best for you, narrowing your list of schools. Consider the following when evaluating whether to pursue a full-time campus degree, a self-paced online degree, or a hybrid program with both online and campus components.

Online programs are designed to accommodate working professionals. The flexible, self-paced format makes it a natural choice–in some cases, the only option–for adults balancing work and family obligations. But logistics are not the only benefit of the online PhD or DBA in operations management. Students currently working as operations managers can take advantage of the format to apply their research directly in the workplace. For DBA or professional PhD candidates, this synergy between academic theory and real-world business applications offers an ideal opportunity to take their careers to new heights.

Campus programs typically require full-time residency, but they offer an inside track to an academic career. Students aspiring to a career as an operations management professor or research scholar may be best served by investing in a campus program. Campus residency affords unparalleled access to faculty and university research facilities such as libraries and computer labs. Faculty mentorships and relationships within the academic community can be instrumental to securing a faculty position. And campus teaching and research assistantships serve as apprentice roles for academic careers.

Step Three: Explore Academic Program Options

Once you’ve compiled a list of accredited operations management doctorate programs that meet your basic qualifications, you’re ready to explore the unique characteristics of each school on your list and decide which ones reflect your academic interests.

The following factors should play into your decision:

  • Areas of concentration in operations management
  • Faculty research
  • Curriculum and course requirements
  • Special programs and resources

WorldWideLearn.com can facilitate the research process by matching you with programs that meet your specifications. List your preferences–campus or online, program type, location, etc.–and the system will match you to schools that fit your individual needs.

Informational interviews with counselors and faculty can be invaluable as you prospect for a program emphasis and faculty mentor that matches your interests. Contact admissions counselors or professors directly for more information.

School Web sites provide basic information about a program’s academic requirements and research emphases. You’ll find faculty bios and CVs, course reading lists, a list of required courses, and more.

Academic Journals offer an inside perspective on current faculty research. If you’re not sure what you’d like to study, you can use journals as a guide to the issues current in the operations management discipline today. If you do have a sense of your interests, you can use journals to find faculty and programs that specialize in your chosen field.

Some prominent academic journals in operations management include:

  • Journal of Operations Management
  • International Journal of Operations & Production Management
  • Production and Operations Management
  • Operations Research
  • Management Science
  • Mathematics of Operations Research
  • Mathematical Programming
  • Journal of the American Statistical Association
  • European Journal of Operations Research
  • Manufacturing and Service Operations Management (INFORMS journal)

Academic and Professional Associations

Cultivate your new network by joining the academic and industry associations. The most prominent include the Institute of Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS) and the Association for Operations Management (APICS) .

Step Four: Evaluate Program Quality

Last but not least, evaluate all the programs on your shortlist and rank them according to the quality and value of the degree. Doctoral programs vary widely in selectivity and currency in the academic or professional job market. Since this is one of the most important investments you’ll make in your life, it’s important to ensure that you get the maximum return.

Consider the following factors when evaluating PhD or DBA programs in operations management:

  • Selectivity
  • Graduation Rate
  • Job Placement Statistics
  • Career Support Resources
  • Student Body Profile

Rankings offer a general sense of the relative value of particular campus and online PhD degrees in operations management. The major business publications perform regular evaluations and rank schools to a complex algorithm of factors. They include:

Financial Times The Wall Street Journal BusinessWeek Forbes EIU Economist Intelligence Unit

Since each newspaper uses different criteria, results vary. Financial Times has sought to bridge the gap among rankings by publishing one master ranking that takes into account all five publications’ results.

Admissions data can help you gauge how you measure up to other applicants in terms of undergraduate grades and test scores. Selectivity information allows you to match your profile with an appropriate program. Plan to apply to at least one ‘dream’ school–almost out of your league–and one ‘safety’ school–a sure bet.

Student data offers insight into the value of the degree and the nature of the student experience. Find information about job placement, degree completion, and the student demographic.

Preparing for a PhD or DBA Program in Operations Management

The last phase in your journey into the academic world: preparing your application for your chosen schools. First, complete any required prerequisites. Common requirements include:

  • A bachelor’s degree in business, economics, or a related field. If your undergraduates degree is in another field, plan to take some basic prerequisite courses to get up to speed. The admissions department of your chosen programs can offer specific guidance.
  • Standardized tests such as the GRE, GMAT, or TOEFL (for international students)
  • Work experience

Next, compile materials to complete your application. Most PhD and DBA programs require the following:

  • Undergraduate transcript
  • Test scores
  • Faculty and professional letters of recommendation
  • Personal statement

Financial Aid

Both campus and online doctoral degrees are important investments. Prepare for a smooth transition by researching your financial aid options. Many PhD programs offer funding programs for graduate students in the form of stipends, tuition waivers, and research and teaching assistantships. Other options include:

  • Private scholarships

Admission Procedures

Applicants should have at least a bachelor’s degree. Admission is based on grade point average, graduate examination test score (GMAT* or GRE), letters of reference (at least three, with two from academic references), business and professional experience (if applicable), a written statement of personal objectives and compatibility with faculty research activities. Since the School of Management starts making first-round admission decisions on December 9, it is best to complete the entire application process no later than December 8. While applications will be accepted after that date, applying after December 8 may significantly lower your chance of acceptance. Applications for admission can be made using the UT Dallas Graduate Application website .

* UT Dallas Naveen Jindal School of Management prefers the GMAT admission test, however, we gladly accept the GRE test as well.

Degree Requirements

Calculus, matrix algebra, computer programming and statistics are prerequisites for the doctoral program – every admitted student is responsible for ensuring he/she has satisfied these prerequisite requirements before joining the program.

Doctoral students in Management Science benefit from an exposure to multiple functional areas in management. To ensure this benefit, students who enter the program without an MBA (or equivalent degree) are required to complete a combined minimum of four courses (at the master’s or doctoral level) in at least three functional areas. This cross-functional exposure is particularly useful for students engaging in cross-functional research, in positioning their research for wider appeal and for effectively teaching business school students with diverse specializations.

The Management Science PhD core curriculum consists of a minimum of 9 courses.

Please visit the Management Science Degree Plan page for core and secondary core course requirements.

Nine semester credit hours in any approved field.

Students are required to take a sequence of specific Operations Management courses. Students should consult with faculty members in their respective areas to decide on the sequence of courses.

Twelve semester credit hours of special topics and seminars in the operations management area.

Students are required to write original research papers in both their first and second summers. The second year paper is presented in a seminar attended by faculty and other students and must be judged to be passing by the faculty before the student can advance to candidacy.

Operations Management PhD students take a written preliminary exam at the end of their first year in the program over a set of core methodology courses ( OPRE 7310 Probability & Stochastic Processes, OPRE 7311 Stochastic Models in Operations Research, OPRE 7320 Optimal Control Theory, OPRE 7353 Optimization). Students will take a qualifying exam (consisting of a completed research paper) at the end of their second year in the program (effective for students entering the program in Fall 2020 and beyond).

PhD students must successfully complete the preliminary and qualifying examinations, respectively, to enter PhD candidacy. The area faculty will determine whether a student has successfully completed the exam requirements based on the student’s performance. Criteria to evaluate students may include results from the in-class written portion of the exams, quality of research papers and/or presentations, performance in special courses (e.g. seminar courses), satisfactory GPA as determined by area faculty and other forms of assessment as required by the student’s area.

Program Highlights

Our Ph.D. curriculum distinguishes us from other doctoral programs in operations management in several ways.

  • First, we leverage the substantial size of our faculty to offer unparalleled breadth and depth in operations management Ph.D. seminars (two to four topics are covered each year).
  • Second, we strongly endorse diverse research methods including modeling, empirical analysis, and behavioral experiments to address different managerial challenges in operations management. Rigorous training on a variety of operations research methods is obtained from ISyE (ranked No.1 industrial engineering program in the world).
  • Additionally, we leverage the expertise of other Georgia Tech faculty offering courses on a wide spectrum of empirical, behavioral, and computational methods..

Facilitating Ph.D. Student Academic Growth

Ph.D. students are immersed in research starting in the first year of the doctoral program, accelerating their growth as scholars. Students are encouraged to develop their own research “voice”, leveraging their background, academic training, and past experiences.

Our culture embodies freedom and flexibility for students to select their research topics and advisors. To ensure focus and forward momentum, faculty engage with Ph.D. students on goal setting and provide clear direction for students to attain those goals.

In addition to one-to-one mentoring, we offer teaching effectiveness seminars. Ph.D. students are provided funding to attend conferences and workshops and funding is guaranteed for five years (subject to a student remaining in good standing).

Our Vibrant Community

The operations management Ph.D. program is a close-knit group that invests in community building and professional development. Ph.D. students thrive in the vibrant social and cultural communities at Georgia Tech and the Atlanta metropolitan area. Additionally, Georgia Tech has a large and diverse graduate student community. Atlanta has a very favorable cost of living compared to many other large metropolitan areas.
