You will ideally have interests in business and marketing analytics (the use of quantitative models to support marketing decisions) to strengthen the department's teaching and research. Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to, dynamic issues of Marketing Engineering, such as dynamic market response models, modeling the impact of promotions and elasticities, stochastic consumer behavior models, adoption and diffusion modeling, marketing applications in the context of forecasting and time series analysis, or the use of analytical approaches to Market Research or Direct Marketing in general.
