Many students come to SDM through company sponsorship, but those who are self-funded find they do very well in the job market. In 2008, 100 percent of the SDM fellows who responded to our survey were employed. 96 percent had jobs lined up before graduation and 4 percent within one month of graduation. For further details, consult the 2007-2008 SDM Employment Report.
Various campus events are available to assist the job seeker. The MIT Careers Office can provide you with information about on-campus recruitment events and career fairs. Recruiting is also done through the Master of Engineering in Logistics (MLOG) program.
SDM holds its own weeklong recruitment period every year in early November. This event is designed specifically for self-funded SDM fellows. For more information, please contact Helen Trimble, director of career development, htrimble@mit.edu, 617.258.8256.
