This is a new program but is highly selective. Also, management programs are becoming increasingly competitive.

Really!? Do you know why? You mean quit or be kicked out?

Quit, not been kicked out. I do not know the reason.
Guess the program is too new and it is too risky for them to invest 5 years in it.

New programs such as those at UCSD and UCR are like that: High rate of faculty and student turn overs; insufficient training in a general field. However, provided that professors have high reputation and keen envisions, the first year students usually can take a free ride to certain frontier of research (maybe not the main stream though).

Still UCSD is a great university, and the academic tradition of a top university can hardly be imitated by other schools. Thus I am for the UCSD program, unless strong evidence proves otherwise.

How do you know anything about UCR's new PhD program? It hasn't officially started yet (start in Sep. this year).

I agree on the 'high reputation and keen envisions' part. ..But, what do you mean by 'High rate of faculty and student turn overs; insufficient training in a general field'? It might be true at other new programs, but you can't say that to UCR (perhaps UCSD either?), as UCR's program even hasn't started yet.
