Thank you for your interest in Northwestern University's Industrial Engineering and Management Sciences Graduate Program!

Applications will be accepted for Fall beginning in October and ending December 31st of each year. We only admit PhD degree-seeking students for the Fall Quarter - please do not apply for any other quarter. 

Applications to Northwestern University's Graduate School, and by extension to this department, must be submitted electronically while all supplemental materials must be sent to the IEMS department. In addition, all fees must be submitted electronically as well - no checks will be accepted. Please visit the Application Procedure page for more information about the online application process. As part of a new initiative to better support prospective graduate students, the McCormick School of Engineering has launched the Graduate Admissions Tracking System (GATS) an on-line supplement to the University's application system . Applicants may use this system to check the status of their application materials. Please use the application number provided to you by the Apply Yourself application system (NOT your PIN) and the email you used in your application.If you have any questions that you cannot find answers to on the website, please do not hesitate to contact me by e-mail (gcoord @ iems.northwestern.edu).
