Doctoral Colloquium
Thank you to our generous partner
The ANZMAC 2023 Doctoral Colloquium (DC) will be hosted by the University of Otago Business School and will run from Friday 1st to the Sunday 3rd of December immediately prior to the main ANZMAC 2023 conference.
The DC is a forum for doctoral marketing students to meet and discuss their work with both each other and an experienced research panel of discussants. The colloquium will be held in a constructive, collaborative, inclusive and friendly environment. All topics and methodological approaches within the broad field of marketing and consumer behaviour are welcome.
Doctoral students in any year of study are welcome to submit their research but we are keen to provide you with the maximum opportunity for discussion and debate, and for you to receive focused, detailed and constructive feedback on your research from our panels of distinguished research discussants. For this reason, we would ask you to consider how you would benefit most in terms of feedback. More specifically:
-
Students in the early stages of their PhD may benefit most from feedback on their critical review of the literature, conceptual framing of their study and the development of their research question(s).
-
Students in the mid-stages of their PhD may benefit most from feedback on their justification for their research design and methodology and how this aligns with their research question(s) and aims.
-
Finally, students in the final stages of their PhD may value feedback on their preliminary analysis of findings and their articulation of the proposed theoretical contribution of their study.
Presentations
Doctoral presentations at the colloquium will take place in parallel tracks based on topic areas of study and particular areas of focus (i.e., literature, research design or analysis of findings). In addition to student presentations, there will be faculty presentations designed to help students plan and manage their PhD journey.
Funding Schemes
There are a number of funding schemes available to assist DC students to attend the Colloquium and Main Conference. Details of these can be found on the submission template.
Should you have any questions regarding the Doctoral Colloquium, please feel free to email anzmac23dc@otago.ac.nz.
