Call for Participants: 2025 AOM Research Methods Division-CARMA Doctoral Student and Junior Faculty Consortium (Online)

RMD Members,

Even if you are not a potential participant in this year’s consortium, please pass this announcement on to junior colleagues and PhD students, regardless of whether they are already members of your RM division!

This is a call for participants for the 2025 Research Methods Division-CARMA Doctoral Student and Junior Faculty Consortium. The consortium offers a virtual, real-time, and interactive opportunity designed for participants to engage with leading scholars and methodologists across three perspectives: macro-quantitative, micro-quantitative, and qualitative.

The consortium features two plenary panels where accomplished scholars share their expertise and advice on designing and publishing research with advanced methods. In addition, participants will have the opportunity to engage deeply with specialized methodological areas through two interactive breakout sessions. These sessions are designed to provide hands-on experiences and stimulate discussion on specific research methods, guided by expert methodologists. For each breakout session, participants will select and join two methods topics they are interested in, enabling them to explore a diverse range of methodologies and enhance their skills in those methods.

This year, we are excited to offer additional sessions about (a) a variety of qualitative research methods and (b) different types of machine learning tools and methods.

If you would like to participate, please register by Wednesday, 28 May. If you are a graduate student, you will be asked to provide the name and email address of a faculty advisor or mentor who supports your application.

If you have any questions about the consortium, email the Consortium Chair.

Xavier Martin (Tilburg University)

Cindy Maupin (University of Mississippi)
