Il SIM Doctoral Colloquium si svolgerà presso l’Università di Bologna, Campus di Rimini
18 – 19 Giugno 2025
The SIM Doctoral Colloquium offers doctoral students in marketing an opportunity to meet and discuss their research project and results with leading academics in the field.
The colloquium welcomes a wide range of topics, applications, and methods in marketing. It aims to support young scholars in the development of their dissertations by strengthening the theoretical, methodological, and practical relevance of their research. This will be done by stimulating the debate with the faculty members as well as with the fellow doctoral students.
The faculty of the SIM Doctoral Colloquium strongly encourages the participation of PhD students both at early and more advanced stages. Students in the 1st or 2nd year of their PhD program could benefit from discussions and insights on the relevance of their ideas and suggestions on their methodological approach, as well as explore possible research opportunities at international institutions. Students in the final years of their PhD program could receive feedback on their dissertations, advice on how to target their projects for submission to leading marketing journals, and on potential future research and professional directions.
Each participant admitted to the colloquium will be assigned both a peer discussant and a faculty discussant based on their substantive or methodological background in order to favor the exchange of ideas, comments and insights. The ultimate goal of the colloquium is to create a collaborative and stimulating exchange among all participants, offering a friendly atmosphere that could favor networking and the creation of personal relationships, encouraging interactions among PhD students and faculty members.
