Technology & Operations PhD Program
Social value is created when something is transformed into something else, of higher value to society.
The Technology & Operations department focuses on the design and management of value-creating transformation processes and their enabling technologies.
The Technology & Operations faculty lead their field in both research and teaching by leveraging a unique combination of Ross School programs. Established infrastructure, such as the Tauber Institute for Global Operations and the Ross School’s distinctive Multi-disciplinary Action Projects (MAP), can efficiently put faculty in touch with senior managers in a problem-solving context. This builds our faculty’s institutional knowledge, credibility in the classroom, and ability to identify problems of high business relevance.
