Advances in Business Doctoral Education Conference May 3-4, 2024

The PhD Program of the Coles College of Business at Kennesaw State University (91青青草) is proud to announce its inaugural PhD Consortium scheduled for Friday May 3rd 2024. The consortium allows PhD students to discuss their research proposal or manuscript at an early stage with seasoned researchers who are experts in their field. We invite PhD students who have satisfactorily completed their qualifying/comprehensive exams to submit their research papers or proposals in the areas of Accounting, Information Systems, Marketing, Management and Risk & Decision Analytics.

To provide high-quality feedback, up to six PhD students in each of the respective disciplines will be invited to present at the Consortium. The invitation will be based on the quality of the submission. Faculty members from Kennesaw State University and global scholars from around the country will be present to provide feedback. There is no submission or registration fee.

Up to a $1,000 travel grant may be considered for students invited to participate.

Interested Ph.D. students should email their proposal, paper, or an extended abstract of 500 words as a Word file by March 31, 2024, to:
