DiversityInc - January/February 2008

Professors, Dr. Craig Sisneros, Wichita State University, and Dr. Darryl Brown, Illinois State University, share double the joy at a PhD Project annual conference. Both Accounting Professors, they met through The PhD Project Accounting Doctoral Students Association and defended their dissertations on the very same day!

There’s a lot of joy in being a Professor.

If you are searching for more meaning than your current career can offer, have a passion for learning, and are of African-American, Hispanic-American or Native American descent—let The PhD Project be your guidance counselor.

The PhD Project provides access to key information and resources about doctoral studies in the business area, as well as a network comprised of current doctoral students, faculty and doctoral program directors…the very people who once walked in your shoes.

Perhaps the single greatest support provided by The PhD Project can be found at our annual conference in Chicago. Held every November, you’ll network with others who are considering a career as a professor, current doctoral students, professors and doctoral program directors. We invite you to share this "life-altering" experience by visiting our website, and imagining what it must feel like to devote your life, and your career to changing the face of corporate America.
