Hello,

For those of you guiding talented young people into management related PhD programs, I would like to bring your attention to the Rotterdam School of Management (Erasmus University, Netherlands). 

We have a variety of particular projects (listed below) for talented students in addition to an "open program" (that is more akin to the US model). The deadline for applications is relatively soon (March 15th).

About the research environment at RSM: In the last decade, we have shot upwards in our management research productivity, so that we are now in the top 15 worldwide (by pure volume measures). In particular, in the last 2 years, we have had RSM scholars publish five articles in the Academy of Management Journal.  Other outlets for our publications in the last 2 years include: Journal of Management, Organization Science, Organization Studies, Journal of Management, Journal of Management Studies, Journal of Business Venturing, Long-Range Planning, Leadership Quarterly, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Applied Social Psychology, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, Journal of Organizational Behavior, Human Relations, Journal of Business Ethics, Business Ethics Quarterly, and Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, amongst others.

In addition, the stipend for doctoral students is considerably higher than most stipends at US schools, and the teaching obligations are similar (if not lower).

The lists of projects can be found at: http://www.rsm.nl/home/faculty/doctoral_programme/phd/phd_vacancies  ;  http://www.erim.eur.nl/ERIM/Doctoral_Programme/PhD_in_Management/Current_PhD_Vacancies
