    (APOLOGIES FOR CROSS POSTINGS)

     

    We invite applications for the 2011 Entrepreneurship Doctoral Consortium!

     

    The Entrepreneurship Division will sponsor its annual consortium for doctoral students during the 2011 annual meetings of the Academy of Management in San Antonio, Texas.  The Consortium brings together doctoral students and experienced faculty to discuss opportunities and challenges as scholars in the field.  This year, the program will include panels and discussions on dissertation strategies, first job and career path considerations, establishing research partnerships, and a host of other topics.  Students will also receive detailed and constructive feedback on their work from an accomplished scholar in the field. The Consortium will begin at 9 am on Friday, August 12, continue until 5 pm on Saturday, August 13, and include a dinner Friday evening. 

     

    The Consortium is open to doctoral students who have completed approximately two to three years of their Ph.D. program.  The ideal candidate will have finished coursework and be engaged in preparing a dissertation proposal.
