2006 Doctoral Dissertation Award Competition
Social Issues in Management (SIM) Division
Academy of Management
The members of the Social Issues in Management (SIM) Division recognize recent doctoral studies work by conducting the annual Social Issues in Management Doctoral Dissertation Award competition. A plaque, along with monetary recognition, will be presented at the business meeting of the SIM Division at the Academy meetings in Atlanta in August, 2006. To be eligible for this award, a doctoral dissertation must focus on some aspect of the relationship between business and society (broadly construed). The particular discipline in which the dissertation is written is not a consideration. Criteria for selection include, but are not limited to:
- Relevance
- Originality
- Clarity and lucidness of writing
- Methodological appropriateness
- Contribution to research/practice
- Theoretical relationships
- Written in the English language
Entries for the 2006 award competition must be successfully defended between March 1, 2004 and February 28, 2006 (a 24-month period). Applications for this award must be received by March 15, 2006 (this is an extended deadline). A completed application includes: (1) an abstract of not more than 10 (ten) double-spaced pages, 1” margins throughout; in a Word file; (2) a copy of the signature page, with university name, signatures, and date of defense; and (3) a title page with the author’s current mailing address, telephone number, fax number, and email address. The abstract should not identify either the university or the author. The title page should be contained in a separate page or Word file. Each finalist will be asked to send an electronic copy of the complete dissertation by early April 2006.
