Hello,
 
The PhD Program at the Graduate School of Business at the University of
Chicago will be holding an information session for Swarthmore students
on Wednesday, October 11, at 6:30 pm at Parrish Hall, room 159.  I've
included some general information on the opportunities the Program
offers below as well as details on the info session.  It would be great
if you could forward this information on to any students you know who
might be considering graduate school.

We're interested in undergrads with a background in CS, as it is
relevant to all of our eight dissertation areas.  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.  
  
 
Best, 
 
Malaina Brown
