Hi Trish and Amy:
Based on the early inquiries, I would say we are likely to have a pretty full program. Therefore, I am not quite sure what to say. My best guess is that so many of our constituents are somewhat more versed in this topic given the amount of work we do human subjects, etc.

Public & Nonprofit Division Doctoral Student Professional Development Consortium
2011 Academy of Management Annual Meeting - San Antonio, Texas
August 13, 2011
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 13, 2011.
This call is an advance call to enable you to be listed in the AoM Meeting program. 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 February 18, 2011 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. The doctoral consortium is most beneficial for advanced doctoral students who have already made progress towards the dissertation or dissertation proposal. 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.

If accepted, submitting your abstract to the Doctoral Consortium Co-Chairs by February 18th will ensure that your name appears in the conference program as a participant in the Doctoral Consortium. Some universities, departments or other funders may require proof of participation before funding conference travel, and depending on your organization’s requirements, this listing could serve as that proof.
Students accepted to participate in the Consortium must register for the conference. However, there is no additional charge to participate in the Doctoral Consortium. Slots in the Doctoral Consortium are allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Please direct questions to the PNP Doctoral Consortium Co-Chairs Deneen Hatmaker at
deneen.hatmaker@uconn.edu and Amy E. Smith at
amye.smith@umb.edu.
