    Dear Colleagues,

     

    We are pleased to announce that the Career Division (CAR) will again organize a "Careers Doctoral Consortium" for Doctoral Students as part of the pre-conference activities at the Academy of Management Annual Meeting. The goal of this consortium is to help doctoral students in their final phases of their doctoral programs to prepare them for the job marked and future careers. We aim to help you to make the most of your doctoral program, advance your research, consider how best to publish your dissertation or parts thereof, find a job in the academic or professional world, and, perhaps most importantly, establish professional networks with colleagues. Please forward this message to your junior colleagues and doctoral students.

    Doctoral and PhD students are often faced with multiple and oftentimes unexpected challenges in their early career. The academic job market has become increasingly international and complex based on competitive institutional requirements for a research and teaching positions. This year the "CAR Doctoral Consortium" provides a forum for doctoral students to meet, connect, learn from each other informally and create a sense of community. We are especially interested in uniting scholars from a broad range of cultures and institutions. Our speakers are an international group of distinguished senior as well as junior faculty. They will share insights on the following five broad topics: (1) How to get access to support, mentoring, formal and informal resources during your doctoral career phase? (2) Applying for your first academic post: What are key issues, concerns and strategies? (3) Publishing your doctoral research: What needs to be considered and what can we learn from our role models? (4) Engagement with the scientific community: What are possible ways to get engaged in services for the scientific community and what needs to be considered? (5) How to prepare for your teaching role in early academic career phases? The consortium will include presentations and interactive discussion sessions with faculty members. It has been designed to allow for high levels of interaction between faculty and students. In order to maintain a high faculty/student ratio, space for this consortium is strictly limited,

    Pre-registration is required as there is limited space. To register please e-mail k.chudzikowski@bath.ac.uk before 15th of July 2014 and attach a 1 page bio summarizing contact information, research and teaching interests, and publications;

    Students selected to attend the Consortium will be sent a registration code that will allow them to register online.
