MIT's PhD program in operations research (OR) equips you with deep theoretical knowledge while training you to create and implement OR techniques in real-world scenarios.
Students can pursue a general degree path or select from three specialized tracks: operations management, networked systems, and analytics. While all doctoral candidates must meet the core requirements, those opting for a specialized track will need to complete additional discipline-specific coursework.

Qualification Requirements
To be admitted as a regular graduate student, an applicant must have earned a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent from a college, university, or technical school of acceptable standing. Students in their final year of undergraduate study may be admitted on the condition that their bachelor’s degree is awarded before they enroll at MIT.
The minimum score requirements are as follows:
- 250 – computer-based test (CBT)
- 100 – Internet-based test (iBT)
We strongly encourage international applicants from non-English speaking countries to take the IELTS, with a minimum score of 7.
