AIB-SE invites ambitious IB (and any related field with an international angle) doctoral students to attend the AIBS-SE Doctoral Student Consortium. The consortium will provide a unique opportunity for doctoral students from all over the world to further develop their research ideas, to learn about the challenges of conducting international business research and building a successful academic career in this field, and to broaden their professional networks.

 

The format of the Consortium will facilitate a constructive discussion among the doctoral students and the participating faculty on topics of broad interest such as new trends in conducting high-impact international business research, managing the dissertation stage and the job search process, and successful entry into the academic career. In addition, students will receive concrete feedback on their individual current research projects as well as ideas and guidance for their future research agenda.

 

The consortium is open for first-year Ph.D. students as well as more advanced Ph.D. students who are in the dissertation phase. The faculty panel of the 2016 Doctoral Consortium will include a number of accomplished and upcoming international business scholars.

 

The consortium will be held on Thursday, November 10, 2016 as part of the AIB-SE 2016 conference, on board the Royal Caribbean cruise ship 'Brilliance of the Seas' in the port of Tampa.

 

Space for this workshop is limited and participation is by application only. We expect about 20 student participants. We also invite deans, department chairs, former workshop alumni and other faculty to encourage their doctoral students to apply.
