GDO members --- there are still a few seats left for our Doctoral Student Consortium next month! I encourage you to attend or to pass on to someone who you think would enjoy these sessions.
If you are an advanced doctoral students with research interests in diversity, you will not want to miss the 2014 Doctoral Consortium, which will be held on Saturday, August 2, 2014, as part of the pre-conference program at the AOM meeting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
This year, the consortium will include an exciting mix of panels and activities designed to provide doctoral students with ideas for how to leverage research through grant writing, managing service obligations, as well as advice for conducting high quality diversity research. We will also be providing doctoral students with a unique and invaluable opportunity - Using information that registrants provide to us about their research interests, we will be matching them with senior scholars for a mentor lunch.
Applicants must meet the following criteria to participate: 1) Be endorsed by their advisor; and 2) Have made significant progress toward completing their Ph.D.
Those interested should send an email to the chairs of the consortium: Drs. Caren Goldberg (
careng@american.edu) and Orlando Richard (
orlando.richard@utdallas.edu) and include:
1) a short endorsement from a faculty member;
2) statement of research interests and career goals, including a dissertation summary if possible; and
3) curriculum vitae.
Once accepted to participate, registrants will receive a link to a short online survey designed to collect additional information that will be used to customize the consortium to participants’ needs and interests as much as possible.
We look forward to hearing from you!
Orlando Richard
