    Announcing Winners of the 2022 POMS College of SCM Best Student Paper Competition

    This year, the award committee received 52 submissions for the 2022 POMS College of Supply Chain Management (SCM) Student Paper Competition. We thank all the participants. We used a two-round process to select the winners for the competition. In the first round, each submission was evaluated by multiple reviewers who were experts in the topic and four finalists were selected. Then, a jury formed by four faculty members selected the winners based on evaluation of the finalists' papers and their presentations at the POMS Annual Conference this past weekend.

    We would like to congratulate the winners of the competition below and thank all the first-round reviewers and the jury members whose names are attached at the end of this announcement for their service.
