    University of Kansas seeking Doctoral Student Applicants in Strategy,
    Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management.

    The School of Business at the University of Kansas (KU) is seeking
    qualified applicants for the doctoral program in Management to begin
    Fall 2006. We anticipate enrolling a small cohort of students in
    Strategy, Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management, which
    are the three specializations offered by the KU Management faculty. The
    KU School of Business Ph.D. Program is for full-time, on-campus students
    who wish to become scholars in their discipline. All students are
    supported with financial aid through research assistantships,
    fellowships and teaching.

    Doctoral students are taught, supervised by, and have the opportunity to
    work collegially and closely with a research-active Management faculty
    including Ronald Ash, Vince Barker, Melissa Birch, Tailan Chi, James
    Guthrie, David Hoopes, Dennis Karney, Jill Kleinberg, Charles Krider,
    Jeong-Yeon (Jay) Lee, Kenneth Mackenzie, Renate Mai-Dalton, Douglas May,
    Joseph Reitz, Catherine Schwoerer, Daniel Spencer, Feirong Yuan, and
    Jane Zhao. This faculty group has a wide range of research interests in
    various aspects of strategy, organizational behavior, human resource
    management and international management.

    The University of Kansas is a Carnegie I Research University located in
    Lawrence, Kansas (population: near 100,000 people) approximately 40
    miles from Kansas City. Lawrence has been rated as one of the best
    places to live in the United States because of its quality of life,
    including a vibrant arts community, good schools, recreational
    opportunities and overall diversity as a college town. The School of
    Business at KU is growing with the addition of 14 new faculty members in
    the last year.

    Admission to the KU School of Business Ph.D. Program is competitive with
    only a handful of students admitted for Fall, 2005. Interested students
    should visit:

    admissions information, student profiles and placement information.

    Colleagues at other universities are encouraged to pass this posting on
    to any qualified potential applicants.
