“I knew I’d like teaching and now
I found the area of research
in accounting I enjoy too.”
Inform.
Educate.
Encourage.
You could influence the next generation of leaders.
As a PhD, there is a balance between research and teaching. Throughout her life,
Dr. Melissa Martin had always been teaching something. “I knew I’d like teaching,
and now I found the area of research I enjoy.” Dr. Martin’s PhD Project mentor,
Dr. Annie McGowan, helped guide her through the admission process and her research objectives. “She has been a big mentor and made me realize I could do it.”
Imagine what it’s like to devote your life, and your career to changing the face of
corporate America. If you are of African-American, Hispanic American, or Native
American descent and interested in pursuing a career as a business school professor, The PhD Project can guide you towards your new future—mentoring the next
generation.
We are an alliance of foundations, corporations, universities, and professional and
academic organizations. At our annual conference, held every November in Chicago, you’ll network with professors, doctoral program directors and doctoral students and gain program insights in 2 days that normally take months to acquire.
We invite you to share this “life altering” experience. Visit www.phdproject.org
