The Technology and Innovation Management Division is now accepting applications from Ph.D. students for its 2008 doctoral consortium to be held at the Academy of Management meeting in Anaheim. The consortium will be held on Friday, August 8 from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. (dinner following) and on Saturday, August 9 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
The TIM doctoral consortium is most valuable to Ph.D. candidates interested in conducting leading-edge research and teaching in technology management, innovation, and related areas. The consortium will be led by a panel of faculty members with proven research and teaching records who will address key issues in academic life such as publishing in top journals, managing your time for research, meeting teaching and institutional demands, managing research collaborations, and funding your research.
The coordinators of the 2008 consortium are Robert Salomon (NYU) and Mary Benner (Wharton). The faculty facilitators include: Costas Markides (LBS), Riitta Katila (Stanford), Corey Phelps (U. of Washington), Francisco Veloso (Carnegie-Mellon), Charles Williams (Duke), with one or two others TBA.
The application deadline is Friday, May 2, 2008. Only electronic applications will be considered. To apply, please send a Curriculum Vitae along with a one-page statement containing the following information: (1) Your full contact information, (2) your stage in the doctoral program, (3) the name of your thesis advisor and one additional reference, and, (4) A 100-word abstract or summary proposal of your dissertation.
