Public & Nonprofit Division Doctoral Student Professional Development Consortium
2010 Academy of Management Annual Meeting
August 3 - 7, 2012
Boston, Massachusetts
If you are a doctoral student with aspirations to research and teach in public or nonprofit management, consider applying to the Doctoral Student Professional Development Consortium of the Public and Nonprofit (PNP) Division of the Academy of Management (AoM). The Doctoral Consortium is an unparalleled opportunity to (a) get tips on finding an academic job; (b) present your existing research or proposal and obtain feedback from senior scholars; and (c) network among peers, future colleagues, and potential employers. The Doctoral Consortium takes place on Saturday, August 4, 2012.
If you are interested in attending the Doctoral Consortium, please consider submitting a one to three page research proposal or abstract of a research paper by May 7, 2012 by 5:00pm ET. If you have decided on a dissertation topic, submit a short synopsis of the dissertation. If you have not yet articulated a dissertation topic, briefly outline a potential research project that could be shaped into a dissertation. Doctoral students at any stage are welcome to apply to the consortium, and the consortium is especially beneficial for students who are in the dissertation proposal development stage or later. As part of the Doctoral Consortium, students will have an opportunity to present their research proposals or current projects to faculty members in the field.
To submit a proposal, you may e-mail your abstract to both of the PNP Doctoral Consortium Co-Chairs using the e-mail addresses below. Be sure to include a title on your proposal along with your name, school, and preferred e-mail and phone number.
