VISION
A significantly larger pool of highly qualified African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans, and Native Americans for positions in management.
MISSION
The PhD Project's mission is to increase the diversity of corporate America by increasing the diversity of business school faculty. We attract African-Americans, Hispanic-Americans and Native Americans to business Ph.D. programs, and provide a network of peer support on their journey to becoming professors. As faculty, they serve as role models attracting and mentoring minority students while improving the preparation of all students for our diverse workplace and society.
OBJECTIVES
To inform and educate minorities about all aspects of a business doctoral program, and encourage them to follow their dream of becoming a professor;
To provide a nurturing support network for minorities as they navigate their doctoral program;
To increase the number of minority business professors who can function as role models and mentors;
To influence more minorities to pursue business degrees/careers;
To increase the number of qualified minority applicants to fill critical positions in the business disciplines;
To improve the preparation of all students by allowing them to experience the richness of learning from a faculty with diverse backgrounds; and
To reach the goal of a better prepared and more diversified workforce to service a diversified customer base.
