Ph.D. Student Research

School of Management Ph.D. students routinely present their research at leading national and international conferences such as the Academy of Management and the Academy of International Business. For example, the Academy of Management and the Academy of International Business accepted two of the school's first-year students' papers for presentation in 2007. Before they graduate, some Ph.D. students have already published their work in leading journals, often in collaboration with faculty and recent graduates. *Examples include:
