Doctoral students are the stewards of our discipline. In the doctoral program at Bauer, we prepare our students to (1) generate new knowledge through research, (2) conserve the history and fundamental ideas of the discipline, and, (3) transform the knowledge, insight and understanding generated to a form that allows for the effective representation and communication of this knowledge to a variety of audiences.

It is with pride and joy that this edition of the newsletter features the accomplishments of Marketing doctoral student Irene Nahm who has accepted an Assistant Professor position at the University of Minnesota starting Fall 2020. Congratulations Irene!
