2009 Doctoral Consortium Participants
Over fifty Ph.D. students from programs around the globe participated in an excellent Auditing Doctoral Consortium that was held on Thursday, January 15, 2009. Mark Zimbelman served as the program coordinator for the 10th Annual Auditing Doctoral Consortium. He was assisted by Brian Mayhew from the University of Wisconsin who will coordinate the 2010 Consortium. They assembled an impressive line-up of auditing faculty for this all-day event including Joe Carcello, Bryan Church, Steve Glover, Vicky Hoffman, Chris Hogan, Karla Johnstone, Doug Prawitt, Larry Rittenberg, Hun-Tong Tan, Ken Trotman and Jeff Wilks.
One purpose of the Consortium is to stimulate students' research by exposing them to the latest ideas and thoughts from leading researchers in auditing. In addition, the Consortium provides opportunities for networking with other Ph.D. students interested in auditing, established auditing researchers, and journal editors. Students’ enthusiastic comments about the program indicate that the program clearly accomplished these goals. We are grateful for the generous support from he KPMG Foundation, which supports the Consortium.
