2015 01 12 MICHEL SALOFF COSTE VISIT STVP AT STANFORD UNIVERSITY

STVP accelerates entrepreneurship education at Stanford and around the world.
As the entrepreneurship center in Stanford’s School of Engineering, the Stanford Technology Ventures Program delivers courses and extracurricular programs to Stanford students, creates scholarly research on high-impact technology ventures, and produces a large and growing collection of online content and experiences for people around the world.
STVP faculty, Ph.D. students, visiting scholars and industry partners are committed to basic and applied research that enhances our understanding of how new technology businesses, in both established and startup firms, form, survive and grow. These insights are then shared in leading academic publications, our teaching materials, popular media, and in the training of future professors of entrepreneurship.

PROGRAM INFO

Research Focus

STVP’s research is unique in its emphasis on combining theoretical ideas with field-based understanding of real-world challenges of technology firms, all in the context of a leading engineering school in the heart of Silicon Valley. Our research projects examine a range of topics, such as: 
  • technology innovation
  • strategic interaction and competition
  • partner relationships and network formation
  • globalization and policy development
  • venture financing
Our research relies on a variety of methods, including large-scale statistical analysis, laboratory experiments, simulation and multiple case studies, a method pioneered by a number of our faculty. In addition, STVP research focuses on a variety of technologies with particular emphasis on information and web technologies, medical devices, clean-tech energy and robotics.
STVP’s home department, Management Science & Engineering (MS&E), is home to leading researchers in the field of organization studies, with no other U.S. department offering a higher ratio of faculty who are acknowledges experts in the qualitative field methods.

Doctoral Program

STVP’s doctoral program prepares students to conduct research in technology entrepreneurship and business strategy. Most program graduates pursue academic careers at leading business and engineering schools, or explore career opportunities in industry. Our doctoral students are enrolled in the MS&E in the following concentrations:
Organization, Technology and Entrepreneurship
  • Theory and methodological training in organizational behavior and theory, strategy and entrepreneurship
  • Focus on strategy in technology-based companies
Policy and Strategy
  • Theory and methodological training in organizational theory, strategy and economics
  • Focus on business policy and technology policy decisions
Our doctoral students combine studies in engineering, management, sociology, psychology and economics to gain a unique and balances perspective. Our students not only take courses in MS&E, but also have access to Stanford’s entire organization studies community, one of the largest and most highly regarded in the country. The faculty welcomes applications from students with either social science or technical degrees — the blending of engineering and social science is the department’s trademark.
STVP doctoral students typically complete degree requirements in four to five years. Students complete both a written comprehensive exam and a second-year paper, displaying both a literature review covering the first two years of coursework, and some original analysis in organizational studies. Visit the MS&E website for more information.
