AIS Doctoral Candidates

Working on a dissertation is hard work. It takes a serious time commitment, not only from the doctoral candidate, but also from committee members. For doctoral candidates looking to work on an Accounting Information Systems (AIS) dissertation, finding committee members with AIS expertise in their department can be challenging. That is why this site was created in order to encourage and match AIS doctoral candidates with senior AIS scholars who would be willing to provide the time commitment necessary for a successful dissertation process.   

The scholars listed below are willing to help serve on dissertations committees, subject to having expertise in your area and not being committed to too many committees.  If you are at an institution that cannot fully support your AIS work, email one of the people below with information about your dissertation and how you want them to help.

Journal of Information Systems

Journal of Information Systems

The Journal of Information Systems (JIS) is the academic journal of the Accounting Information Systems Section of the American Accounting Association. JIS publishes academic research and practice-based reports related to the relationship between accounting, information systems, and information technology. Rapidly evolving advances in information and communication technologies (ICTs) require accounting professionals (and researchers) to be attuned to the needs of digitally transformed organizations. In response, JIS seeks to support, promote, and improve research and practice regarding the linkages between accounting and systems, including how this informs risk and opportunity in today’s global society. The journal reports on current topics through a focus on: human-computer interaction (HCI) research in accounting information systems (AIS); the integration of accounting and information technology; the implications of global challenges such as climate change upon AIS; applying or understanding information technology theory and practice within AIS, accounting, and auditing; methodology; and developing theories related to information technology. JIS prints three issues a year in Spring, Summer, and Fall, and is indexed in Scopus and SSCI.
