Fourteenth Annual Industrial-Organizational
Psychology Doctoral Consortium

Thursday, April 29, 1999 marks the day of the Fourteenth Annual Industrial-Organizational Psychology Doctoral Consortium held at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis in Atlanta, Georgia, 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 1999. Enrollment is limited to one student per program up to a maximum of 40 participants. We encourage you to nominate students as soon as registration materials are received, 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 work and careers. The schedule of activities will be as follows:
