Navigating doctoral studies in Operations Management and Industrial Engineering

Abstract

This short guidebook aims to address some frequently asked questions about doctoral studies in industrial management/industrial engineering and the related subjects. The purpose of this guide is to provide practical information with some background justification for each of the items. This is not a replacement for any university official instructions, degree structures or courses offered by the university. The contents of the guide consist of following: positioning what is our field of study, writing and defending a research plan, conducting a literature review and founding on theoretical framework, addressing questions related to research methods, discussing academic publications in conferences and journals, and outlining what constitutes a dissertation in a doctoral level. We hope that this book will demystify the process of doctoral studies, give practical advice of selecting the right journals, conferences, helping to handle review feedback, and other essential parts of the doctoral studies.fi=vertaisarvioimaton|en=nonPeerReviewed
