Applicants must be currently enrolled, in-residence marketing doctoral students who expect to have the doctoral degree awarded in December 2019 or later. The submission deadline is Sunday, May 19, 2019. Please note that your submission indicates your intention to register and attend the conference if selected as a finalist. A complete submission must contain three PDFs, as noted below, sent to the competition chair, Professor Vicky Crittenden at DocCompetition@mmaglobal.org:

1. A member of your doctoral committee or senior faculty member’s letter of recommendation addressing your scholarly record, potential for future scholarship and your ability to foster student learning in and outside the classroom,
2. A condensed curriculum vita (two pages, double-spaced, 12-point font) highlighting your scholarly and student learning achievements, and
3. A teaching statement (three pages, double-spaced, 12-point font) describing your ability to engage and foster student learning, including any supporting evidence.

All submissions will be reviewed by three competition judges:
