Cultivating a Research Pipeline

Introduction

A Program for Assistant Professors, by Dwayne Gremler and Christina Sichtmann

Cultivating a Research Pipeline” Program for Assistant Professors

Dr. Dwayne Gremler (Bowling Green State University) and Dr. Christina Sichtmann (University of Vienna) would like to make you aware of a program that they believe would be of interest to assistant professors in marketing, management, and other related disciplines.  Responses to a survey they distributed earlier this fall (on ELMAR) suggest many assistant professors are interested in discovering more about how to cultivate a research pipeline during the early stages of their academic career.

Based in part on what they learned from the survey, Dwayne and Christina have partnered to design a live, online program entitled “Cultivating a Research Pipeline” that will be offered early next year.  (For a brief video discussion of what a “research pipeline” is, click .)

The program, which has received an endorsement from the ’s Service Special Interest Group (SERVSIG), is intended to provide insights to junior faculty about effectively and efficiently organizing their research endeavors to set the stage for a successful academic career.  Dr. Andrew Gallan (Florida Atlantic University), who serves as the Mentoring Officer for SERVSIG, believes this program is another means (beyond mentoring relationships between senior and junior faculty) to prepare young scholars for a career in the academic community that requires success in research publications.

Both Dwayne () and Christina () have extensive experience in working with young scholars as they grapple with writing academic papers and navigating through the publication process.  To get an overview of the program and its tentative dates (including a start date of January 24, 2024), more details can be found .  Registration is now open and information about how to register can be found near the bottom of that page.

Dwayne and Christina believe this program could be quite helpful for relatively new assistant professors, particularly in business schools, as they begin their academic career and are charged with publishing impactful research.  If you have questions regarding the program, please contact Dwayne at dg@gremler.net or Christina at christina@flyhigh.academy.
