Thursday April 13th 2000, marks the day of the Fifteenth Annual
Industrial-Organizational Psychology Doctoral Consortium held at the Hyatt
Regency in New Orleans, Louisiana, the same site as the SIOP Conference.
The consortium is intended to provide an educational forum where
presenters and students can discuss topics of mutual interest. Sessions are kept
small to encourage lively discussion. There is also informal time built into the day
to allow interaction among students and presenters.
Each doctoral program will receive registration materials for the
consortium in January 2000. Enrollment is limited to one student per program up to
a maximum of 40 participants. We encourage you to nominate students as
soon as possible, because we enroll students and give preferences in the order
they are received.
The consortium is designed for upper-level students close to the
completion of their doctorates. Most participants will be graduate students in I-O
Psychology or HR/OB who are currently working on their dissertations.
Preference will be given to nominees who meet these criteria and have not attended
previous consortia.
The consortium program has been finalized. We have assembled a
diverse and renowned group of academicians and practitioners who have focused
their presentations around topics and issues students will soon face in their own
careers. The schedule of activities will be as follows:
