Research Methods Division 2015

Doctoral Student and Early Career Faculty Consortium

With support from Center for the Advancement of Research Methods & Analysis (CARMA)

Overview: The consortium is a virtual, real-time, and participative opportunity to interact with leading scholars and methodologists across three perspectives: macro-quantitative, micro-quantitative and qualitative. The timeline of the consortium is provided below.

Panelists: James LeBreton, Brian Boyd, Hettie Richardson, Jeff Edwards, Lisa Schurer Lambert, Paul Spee, Herman Aguinis, Pamela Barr, and many more!

 Key Benefits: (1) Opportunity to learn from and interact with leading scholars and methodologists; (2) all sessions (except the social event) occur outside of the AOM conference time frame; (3) online participation; and (4) no rule limiting the number of participants per school for this consortium (e.g., we may accept multiple doctoral students and faculty members from the same program).

 Who Can Apply? (1) Individuals interested in deepening expertise in research methodology; (2) doctoral students who have successfully passed comprehensive exams; and (3) junior faculty seeking professional development. All participants will require a computer and a good internet connection.

 Do I Need to Be a Methods Researcher to Participate? No! The consortium is open to researchers of all areas who wish to strengthen and develop their methodological skills. If you are not currently a member of the RM Division, you can add an additional division membership on the Academy of Management website for only $11.

 How to Apply: Submit your CV, a short bio (less than one page) that includes any specific interests in research methods, and, for doctoral students, a letter of faculty support to Karen Jansen (karen.jansen@anu.edu.au) by April 17, 2015.
