ABOUT UNIVERSITY OF AMSTERDAM:
The Universiteit van Amsterdam (UvA) has its roots in the seventeenth century. In 1632, during the Dutch Golden Age, the Athenaeum Illustre was founded in Amsterdam to train students in Trade and Philosophy. In 1877, the Athenaeum Illustre became the Universiteit van Amsterdam and was permitted to confer the highest educational degrees. Studying at the Universiteit van Amsterdam provides students with a double challenge: the intellectual challenge of a comprehensive academic curriculum and Amsterdam’s exciting urban environment.
Xavier Giroud
Xavier Giroud, who graduated from NYU Stern’s PhD program in May 2011, headed to MIT as an Assistant Professor of Finance. He credits the faculty support and mentorship he received during the program as one of the main contributors to his success. “Having professors who were always very accessible and always willing to spend time on me was key in learning how to conduct research. Moreover, the quality of the finance faculty meant I always had experienced scholars to confront my ideas with,” says Xavier.
Sean Taylor
Sean Taylor decided to pursue his doctorate because he wanted the opportunity to conduct groundbreaking research. Now in his fifth year of Stern’s PhD program in Information Systems, he’s learned that “almost everything is more complex than you believe at first, and only after you accept that, can you research with an open mind and really make a contribution.”
Matt Cedergren
Matt Cedergren’s interest in doing a doctorate was sparked several years ago when working with an audit client that had been backdating employee stock options. He was reading the Wall Street Journal when he came across an article about a business school professor whose study exposed the very practice of backdating that he was encountering in real life. He became inspired to pursue a career as a business school academic.
Cheryl Flynn
While attending McGill University, Cheryl Flynn received sound advice from one of her professors who suggested she consider studying statistics at a Business school rather than an Arts and Science school, given her background in economics and actuarial science. According to Cheryl, Stern’s PhD program specifically stood out because of its heavy focus on developing research skills, as well as the chance to explore statistical research across a variety of business disciplines.
