IDDEAS@Booth/Kellogg
About the Program
The program has been co-hosted by Chicago Booth and Northwestern University's Kellogg School of Management. Both schools have hosted a group of promising undergraduate students and introduced them to research at the doctoral level. The goal of the program has been to support and encourage student interest in business research. Thank you to our wonderful scholars who have participated thus far!
Participants get the opportunity to:
- Learn about doctoral-level research in business
- Get information about graduate school opportunities
- Receive advice and insights on the application process
- Meet and interact with current doctoral students and faculty
- Discuss careers in research and teaching
Ideal candidates for future iterations of the IDDEAS program are current college sophomores, juniors, or seniors with strong quantitative skills and academic records.
