Thanks to the generous sponsorship of KPMG, the International Section of the AAA will be holding its fourth annual Doctoral/New Faculty Consortium on February 7, 2008. Doctoral students and new faculty who are interested in pursuing international accounting research are invited to attend.
The 4th Annual Doctoral Student/New Faculty Consortium will be held on Thursday, February 7 with an opening reception/dinner on Wednesday evening, February 6. Eligible doctoral students will have all meeting fees waived and hotel costs, for two nights, paid (double accommodation) by the International Accounting Section. New Faculty will have similar benefits but must pay the midyear registration fee. Single accommodations will be available.
The Section will also waive registration fees for the entire midyear conference for doctoral students (which include all the meals and social events). The consortium will include top international researchers and educators from around the world. We are planning on limiting this to 30 participants on a first come first serve basis. Doctoral students should be beyond their first year of study and new faculty must be in their first to third year after Ph.D. graduation at their first academic position.
The IAAER is co-hosting the 14th Annual Mid-Year Conference and 4th Annual Doctoral/New Faculty Consortium of the International Accounting Section of the American Accounting Association in collaboration with the San Diego State University Center for International Business Education and Research (CIBER).
