    Colleagues:

    The Management Department at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln is recruiting doctoral students for the 2015-2016 academic year.  If you have qualified students, particularly those at the Master's level, who are considering pursuing a doctoral degree in a Management area, such as Organizational Behavior, Strategic Management, Human Resource Management, or Entrepreneurship, please let them know about the opportunities in the College of Business Administration at UNL.  We will consider highly qualified students who come from areas inside or outside of business.

     

    The faculty in the Management Department at UNL are focused on producing top tier research and are interested in potential Ph.D. applicants with the desire to engage in rigorous research and eventually take a faculty position at a research university.  UNL offers a Ph.D. in Business through the Management Department.  We offer a balanced array of doctoral seminars and emphasize close faculty-student involvement on research projects.  Students accepted into the program will have free tuition plus a stipend of $25,000 per year.   The application deadline for consideration for the 2015-2016 academic year is February 5th, 2015.More information about the program, including details on the applications process, can be via the link below:
