We are now accepting applications for the 5th FutureBAProf workshop at the University of Iowa for advanced PhD students and postdocs. This is the one and only workshop that demystifies academic careers in business analytics and helps participants prepare for the job market and careers in this field.
Our website is up to date (https://tippie.uiowa.edu/FutureBAProf), and students can now apply online via the website. All accepted applicants will attend for FREE, including air travel. The only restriction is that students are at a U.S. institution. Applications are due April 30.
The workshop will be held in Iowa City from August 16 (opening reception) to August 18 (day of departure). Participants will have opportunities to learn more about research and teaching in business analytics departments, practice networking with business analytics faculty, and get expert job search advice.
We have a strong lineup of speakers. Confirmed external speakers for this year’s event include Ahmed Abbasi, Georgia Perakis, and Violet Chen.
This year’s event is being coordinated by Thiago Serra (thiago-serra@uiowa.edu), Sam Burer (samuel-burer@uiowa.edu), and Ann Campbell (ann-campbell@uiowa.edu). Email us if you have any questions.
