Benefits of - Financial Assistance
All students accepted into the Ph. D. program in Management will receive a graduate assistantship to cover their studies for four years (dependent on continued progress). The graduate assistantship in management includes a 10-month per year stipend, full tuition remission for all courses taken during the year including courses taken in the summer, and a basic health insurance plan covered by the University of Nebraska's student health insurance. Students are encouraged to apply for a limited number of fellowships offered in partnership with the university.
The assistantship is one of the primary ways through which research and teaching skills are developed. Therefore, it is an important part of doctoral studies. Graduate assistants are assigned for a total of 20 hours per week, and all students are required to work as graduate assistants for the full four years in the program. Graduate assistants will be considered for reappointment provided that they continue to make satisfactory progress on program requirements and successfully complete teaching and research assignments.
- Research Assistants
Research assistants are assigned on a rotating basis. RA assignments typically involve students assisting faculty in research and writing work. They are designed to help faculty members with the publishing process and to provide students opportunities to obtain experience in the research process. Through research assistance, students learn the art and craft of scholarship. Students work closely with faculty to learn how to design, structure and complete research projects leading to publications in high quality journals. Students take this knowledge and apply it to their own learning and research programs. The outcome should be research collaborations generating presentations at professional conferences and publications it in top-tier management journals.
- Teaching Assistants
The goal of a teaching assistantship is to provide students with opportunities to develop the skills and experience necessary to create and deliver high quality classroom experiences. Teaching assistance will start with assignments to faculty to help in grading, designing and supporting course activities, and shadowing faculty in the classroom. By the third year students will also be assigned to teach their own class. This will allow them to gain experience in the classroom and have a portfolio of teaching experiences needed for their job search process. Teaching a course/section is considered to be a 10-hour assignment.
- Travel Support
Participation in professional conferences is an important part of a student's research and professional development. Therefore, the College of Business Administration and the Management Department offer opportunities to support conference travel for students who are participating in conference activities.
The college will fund up to $500 per year for doctoral students to travel to present papers at approved academic conferences. In addition, the Management Department will provide up to $1,000 per year to students who are presenting at the National Academy of Management, Midwest Academy of Management, SIOP, or other approved meetings. Students in their last year of the program will be supported to attend the National Academy of Management meeting as part of the job search process regardless of whether they are presenting a paper. Students may also apply for travel support from UNL Graduate Studies.
