    The 2018 New Doctoral Student Consortium (NDSC) is currently accepting registrants for its Professional Development Workshop (PDW) at the AOM Annual Meeting in Chicago. Established in 1997, the NDSC is the only cross-disciplinary AOM Annual Meeting event designed specifically for first and second year doctoral students, as well as those considering the doctoral path. Open to members of all AOM divisions, this interactive session is designed to integrate participants into the AOM academic community and to provide a foundation for excelling in doctoral life. Other aspects of the event include:

     

    ·      Small-group roundtable discussions with prominent scholars from across the AOM divisions

    ·      A "Meet the Divisions" session where representatives across AOM divisions have the opportunity to meet students who are interested in more learning about specific divisions and who are currently figuring out which divisions to join

    ·      Informational presentations on topics such as succeeding in a doctoral program, publishing research, and managing an academic career

    ·      A panel discussion with current and former editors from some of the top management journals during which participants can ask questions, gather advice, and make new connections

    ·      Networking opportunities with fellow doctoral students and established scholars during the consortium and following the PDW at the NDSC social

    ·      A chance to meet doctoral students from around the world with similar research interests and backgrounds - creating a sense of community within the larger AOM conference

     

    The deadline to register online is June 30th, 2018. Space is limited to 110 participants. We recommend registering as soon as possible as spots have filled up very quickly in the past.
