Articles will focus on career/academic life and teaching/advising resources. For example, articles may:

Provide advice on teaching, mentoring, and advising:

• Conversation starters: ways to integrate the latest AMA research into your teaching portfolio; summaries of AMA research at an undergraduate-appropriate level—materials that professors can link to or reproduce in lessons, supplementing info from textbooks

Provide career support:

• Navigating the academic career/life
• Finding research partners in academia or industry

Target readers are:

• Early-career academics: new marketing professors (PhD completed in the past five years); also doctoral students in marketing
• Teaching-focused academics: instructors at teaching-focused universities, as well as all marketing professors interested in refining their teaching
