Testimonials about the Doctoral Consortium |
“The overview of accounting literature provided by the faculty made me feel like {I was} standing on the shoulders of giants, being able to see a cohesive picture of accounting research through their expertise and understanding of the field.”

“The value-added from the Consortium to the academic community, and ultimately to the accounting profession, is enormous. You simply cannot put a dollar value on the benefits of this program. It’s the experience of a lifetime for the participating faculty and the attending students. The Consortium is widely viewed as the AAA’s premier program, and the students attending represent the very best doctoral students in the country each year. The program comes at the stage of students’ doctoral studies when they are ready to embark on their dissertation, other research projects, and develop their teaching skills. Thus the program has an enormous impact on their development as both scholars and accounting educators.”
