Politecnico di Milano School of Management (SoM) is seeking candidates for PhD positions in Management Engineering. The PhD Program in Management Engineering (DRIG) is a full time (3 years) Program of study and research at the intersection of management, economics, and industrial engineering.
SoM has a strong commitment to excellence in both teaching and research. The DRIG Ph.D. prepares candidates for high-level academic research. Moreover, when choosing to find a job in the private sector, DRIG PhD graduates achieve high-level positions, good salaries and, overall, good employment outcomes (95% employed).
