Doctoral Symposium

The Doctoral Symposium aims to provide a helpful and stimulating forum for Ph. D. students to present and discuss their research proposals and early research results. Last year, we conducted a highly effective and well-received Quantitative Methods in Marketing. This year, the doctoral symposium will focus on "Marketing Strategy". The content of this symposium would be unique (which we will put up shortly) and for the most part, the material covered in this programme would not be covered in the Indian B-school FPM/PhD curriculum.

Doctorate students (PhD/FPM/Exec PhD/Exec FPM or equivalent) will attend this symposium. This symposium will be from December 13^th – 15^th (Friday – Sunday). It is also open to assistant professors who have finished their PhDs or equivalent recently. If you wish to attend the doctoral symposium, please click on the button below and register now. Mail us at nasmei@greatlakes.edu.in to raise any query. Last date to enroll for the Doctoral Symposium is 20th November, 2024.
