    Register for the "Halfway There" PDW for Pre-Dissertation Doctoral Students - Saturday, August 10th, 8:00am to 12:00pm

     

    If you are a PhD student who has finished your comprehensive exams (or has finished at least 1 year of your PhD program), we invite you to join us for the annual "Halfway There" PDW at AOM 2024. This PDW is designed to help mid-program PhD students begin establishing themselves as independent scholars. We hope you will consider registering for this session and/or spreading the word to your students and colleagues. Pre-registration is required (see link below) and attendance is limited to 75 people, so if you are interested, please register now using the link below (takes 1-2 minutes).

     

    Program Overview:

    Part 1: Introduction and Introspection

    Part 2: Crafting your Academic Impact with Dr. Angelica Leigh (Duke University) and Dr. Ayana Younge (University of Virginia)

    Part 3: Launching the Dissertation Process with Dr. Margaret Luciano (Pennsylvania State University)

    Part 4: Envisioning your Job Market with Dr. Tiffany Johnson (Georgia Tech), Dr. Julianna Pillemer (NYU), and Dr. Tyler Sabey (Arizona State University)

    Part 5: Round-table discussions with recent job market candidates

    Part 6: Setting your Career Path with Dr. Allison Gabriel (Purdue University)

    Part 7: Concluding Remarks 

    Round Table Discussions: During this session, attendees will be assigned to round tables facilitated by recently minted faculty and post-docs. The facilitators will help answer questions related to the earlier segments and provide insights about their own experiences writing a dissertation, developing a research program, and navigating the job market.

     

    How do I register? The PDW will be held on Saturday, August 10th from 8am-12pm. There is no charge to attend, but interested students must register online by visiting our registration website (or copy paste this URL): https://ttu.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0fweUHaDrRxPpMW. Registration is limited to 75 participants, so registration ASAP is encouraged.

     

    Drop-in attendance at the PDW is not allowed. For more information, please contact Lauren Locklear (lauren.locklear@ttu.edu).

     

    We hope to see you there!
