Upcoming event announcement!!

{Business PhD Program Information Session: University of Chicago}

The PhD Program at the Graduate School of Business at the University of Chicago will be holding an information session at Swarthmore College for Bryn Mawr, Swarthmore and Haverford students on Wednesday, October 11, at 6:30 pm at Parrish Hall, room 159.

"We're interested in undergrads with a wide range of backgrounds. We've found that many students don't know much about business PhD programs (or even that they exist). It can be a good direction for those who want something interdisciplinary and a bit more applied than the typical PhD. Virtually everyone admitted to the Program (and to most of the top programs around the nation) gets full funding (tuition and stipend). The academic job prospects are quite good, both in terms of placement and salary. Below is more information on the info session we'll be doing on October 11. " says Malaina Brown, the Associate Director for the Ph.D. Program.

The details are as follows:
