PhD Project

The PhD Project is a unique diversity initiative that encourages Native Americans, African-American, and Hispanic-Americans to pursue their Ph.D.'s in business to serve as role models and mentors for minority business students. Since our inception in 1994, we have more than quadrupled the number of minority business professors from just 294 to over 1,300 today.

The PhD Project hosts an invitation only conference for minority professionals considering doctoral studies. This conference takes place in Chicago each November and the application deadline is September 30th. The PhD Project will cover all travel, hotel and conference expenses for those who are invited to attend. There is a nominal $200 registration fee (which is waived for full time students.)
