It is my great pleasure to announce this year's finalists in the
INFORMS/Organization Science Dissertation Proposal Competition. We
received sixty-three proposals this year. Eight finalists were chosen
based on evaluations by three reviewers. Thus, the acceptance rate was
about thirteen percent. The competition was extremely fierce, with many
innovative and high-quality proposals submitted. The eight individuals
below will be presenting their dissertation proposals in November in
Austin, TX to a distinguished panel of judges who will select the winner
and runner-up. If you know any of the finalists, please offer them your
heartiest congratulations for this significant accomplishment. The
