Ph.D. Program
Ph.D. Faculty
For supervision of their doctoral dissertations, doctoral students should first look to the Jackson School faculty who generally work under some aspects of the four foundational fields in the JSIS Ph.D. Program. To aid them in this task, this appendix lists the core JSIS faculty by the Four Foundational Fields, highlighting some of their key works. Students are also advised to seek out additional information on the teaching and research interests of these faculty by examining their affiliations with current JSIS Academic Programs.
