    Dear Colleagues,

     

    A quick reminder to all those interested in the Early Doctoral Student PDW hosted by the Career Division. We have a few places left for this event so please forward this message to PhD program directors and faculty as well as doctoral students. We have a great group of speakers and facilitators and it will be an excellent forum for early stage doctoral students to meet, connect, and learn from this group, as well as from each other.

     

    Details for the session are found below. Please feel free to contact Julie Unite (julieunite@hotmail.com) with any further questions.

    Doctoral students are often faced with multiple and oftentimes unfamiliar challenges. The PhD process can be demanding and overwhelming and very often students are left to navigate for themselves these challenging issues. Building a support network and effective strategies to manage this process can be critical to ensure future success. 

     

    Our aim is to bring together experienced scholars from a broad range of cultures and institutions to discuss the following themes:

     

    (1) Low hanging fruit: Making the most of AOM Annual Meetings

    (2) Surviving: Accessing and leveraging formal and informal resources during your doctoral program

    (3) Thriving: Recruiting mentors and collaborators for your network

    (4) Make it happen: Effectively navigating the dissertation process

    (5) Head of the class: Preparing for your first course assignment and teaching role.

    (6) Balancing act: How to juggle demands of academic life during your doctoral program and beyond.

     

    The consortium will include presentations and interactive discussion sessions with faculty members as well as breakfast. 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.

     

    To apply, please submit the following documents to the organizer, Julie Unite (julieunite@hotmail.com):

               

    ·      A one-page memo stating your research focus and interest for participating in the CAR Doctoral Consortium.

     

    Pre-registration is required for this workshop. To register online, please visit https://secure.aom.org/PDWReg. The deadline to register online is July 21, 2016.

    We are looking forward to hearing from you!
