Designed to launch doctoral students into their research career, the Consortium brings together young scholars and experienced faculty to discuss opportunities for advancing academic understanding of entrepreneurship. As such, the Doctoral Consortium’s primary objective is to help prepare students for a successful career as a researcher/professor in academic institutions of higher education. This year’s program will include discussions on the challenges of pursuing an academic career, the publication process, and a host of other relevant topics. Furthermore, students will have the opportunity to receive constructive feedback about a research article on which they are currently working. Only open to those pre-approved by the Consortium organizers.
