Doctoral Program Faculty

Faculty mentors work closely with doctoral students in the Marketing department to help students develop their own theoretically rich, interesting, and productive research programs. The department faculty consistently publishes in top-tier journals such as Journal of Marketing, Journal of Consumer Research, Marketing Science, Journal of Marketing Research, Journal of Consumer Psychology, and Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science.  The faculty has many publications that have received over 100 Social Science Citation Index total citations and/or won significant awards. Both are good indicators of the impact of a scholarly contribution. A total citation of over 100 is considered exceptional; many scholarly articles are cited less than a dozen times.

Faculty members regularly serve as associate editors and editors of top journals and serve on multiple editorial boards and as elected officers in international marketing and consumer associations. Importantly, the faculty takes an active role in doctoral education, enthusiastically working with doctoral students through coursework, mentorship, and research collaboration.
