Please come to an information session to learn about predoctoral research opportunities at the Columbia Business School. The business school is a highly interdisciplinary school with research in the following areas: Accounting; Decision, Risk & Operations; Economics; Finance; Management; and Marketing. We have opportunities for students of all majors, including but not limited to: economics, engineering, computer science, data science, statistics, psychology, and sociology.

The Director of Research, Dr. Khaled Hamdy will talk about the path to a PhD and present information about the following predoctoral research opportunities:

  • Summer Research Internship Program – (NOW TAKING APPLICATIONS) this is a unique and highly selective program provides interns an opportunity to work with Columbia Business School’s faculty on a 10-week research project in finance, economics, marketing, management, behavioral sciences, decision sciences, operations, accounting, or data analytics.
  • Columbia Undergraduate Business Scholarship (CUBS) Program (APPLICATIONS START LATE MARCH) – this program designed for 1st and 2nd year students with little to no research experience to introduce them to research and help them develop the skills necessary to excel in a research environment.
  • Predoctoral Fellows Program – this is a 2-year predoctoral research program. Under the guidance of CBS faculty, predoctoral fellows play an active role in multiple research projects that are in various stages, from conception through publication (OPEN POSITIONS IN ACCOUNTING, DRO, MARKETING).
  • CBS Commitment to Diversity in Business Education Award (CDBE) – Columbia Business School’s Commitment to Diversity in Business Education Award acknowledges and celebrates the importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion in our community and in the academy. This achievement is awarded annually to individuals from the Columbia University community who are pursuing a doctoral degree in business and who—by their background, life experience, service, and/or scholarship—demonstrate a commitment to a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive future.  The award will defray the costs associated with applying to doctoral programs in Business.

Alumni of the Summer Internship and Predoctoral Fellows programs have been placed in top PhD programs across the country.

In addition, Khaled will provide information about the MS and PhD programs at CBS.  Please sign up for the information session (February 17:  3:30pm – 4:30pm) at the following link: https://apply.gsb.columbia.edu/register/Columbia-research-0217. The zoom link will be sent after you register.
