Chicago Booth, through the Center for Decision Research, was the first business school to emphasize behavioral decision making in its MBA and PhD curricula. The following PhD students are affiliated with the CDR. Their dissertations deal with managerial and organizational behavior as well as marketing.

Prospective graduate students who have research interests in topics under investigation by our faculty members, including topics in social psychology and judgment and decision making, are encouraged to apply to the Chicago Booth PhD Program.
