2 PhD positions in Information Systems at University of Miami

mhbs0913

The Department of Business Technology at Miami Herbert Business School is looking to recruit 2 PhD students in areas of Information Systems/MIS/Business Technology/Technology Innovation/Analytics, starting 2023 fall.

https://www.herbert.miami.edu/graduate/find-and-compare-programs/phd-in-bte/index.html

The faculty members in the department cover a wide range of topics and methodological expertise and they hold editorships in top business journals, such as MISQ, ISR, POM, and JAIS. Research topics include digital platforms, digital innovation, healthcare IT, digital media, blockchain, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, etc. The faculty members are active researchers in the field and are very experienced in placing students in research universities in the US, Europe, and Asia.

Admitted students will receive full funding for to up five years, and they will also have opportunities to work with top professors in other areas, such as accounting, strategy, and marketing. U Miami Herbert Business School’s PhD program is very research intensive, for example, its accounting department recently placed students in tenure-track positions in MIT Sloan and Chicago Booth.

嗯嗯，所以应该确实是现在fin 和 acct的薪水都基本在200以上了感觉，只要是比较好的学校。 ...

Again, these 'mind-boggling' numbers are in the main only associated with some of the top schools -- not all of them -- and certain non-top schools (UTD and Colorado, for instance).

I am bowing out of this 'money talk', which I do not think applicants are particularly interested in.

I was prompted to pull out some AP in Finance data for UTD, and indeed they are each paid above $200K. UTD is a top school research-wise, but decidedly not in terms of placement. I am flattered by your words.

讲道理我挺喜欢看大家随便扯点什么的哈哈哈 总比回复前几天删了的那个帖子有意思。

Prof. Tripleg，我了解的很少，也就是听人说过并且用open payroll查过一些公立学校的ap salary。我发现比如像一些还不错的学校确实都给到200以上，当然可能我们对于top的定义有区别。打比方在acct里很出名的utd，可能有些人觉得是top有些人觉得不是，just as an data point，如果用open payroll去查的话就发现他们的ap近几年都是200+。

btw，很喜欢看你回复哈哈哈，可以学很多表达老师是做什么方向的？没有查户口人肉的意思，纯粹是好奇想知道是哪个领域的华人faculty

我已经放弃跟他讨论了。不管你给出多少数据，他永远是坚持这些都是outlier。问他自己的数据吧，他又拿不 ...

My point is that these swelling compensation instances usually occur at a limited number of top schools, including some or all of those you mentioned on an earlier occasion (e.g., Minnesota and Wisconsin). Glad you brought up UCLA here. Isn't UCLA a top school? I am currently not quite in the loop about the AP compensation situation, but to back up my assertion I have consulted some second-hand sources, primarily public school faculty salaries published online.

All in all, we are essentially on the same page in our conversation; that is, we both acknowledge -- explicitly for me -- that these 'mind-blowing' figures usually are only associated with top schools (there are exceptions of course, such as Univ of Colorado, as mentioned earlier). I feel that we diverge only to the point that I emphasize on the overall picture (i.e., the situation across the board) while you on specific schools or compensation numbers -- exceptional cases, if you will.  Particularly, Never Too Far above referred to the salaries of AP hires this year at her or his own school. But all these will not disprove my 'overarching' argument; rather, they bolster it up. I guess I am not arguing in a nonsensical way, but if I am seen as such, that might be because as a bilingual my way of reasoning sounds kind of 'elusive'.

By the way, I personally resonate with Econ faculty's complaint -- I appreciate Never Too Far referring to it -- regarding business faculty compensations.

我已经放弃跟他讨论了。不管你给出多少数据，他永远是坚持这些都是outlier。问他自己的数据吧，他又拿不出来。实在是讲不通。更不用说最近一两年很多学校已经给到300k+了。随便举个例子UCLA给finance ap已经给到320k+了。

Thank you for the detailed information. These 'surreal' figures do exist, as emphasized earlier, but only at a limited number of top schools (it's rare for non-top schools to offer skyrocketing pays, and among the exceptions are Univ of Colorado and most probably your school); hence, they are not representative in a statistical sense. My own research has corroborated my assertion. Have you done yours? Also, the differential between Finance and Accounting and other concentrations typically ranges from several thousand dollars to $20K (or somewhat higher), and anything higher would be unexpected and thus unreasonable.

Glad you mentioned compensations for Economics faculty. You are right, they have long complained that their business counterparts are significantly overcompensated, calling for such unfairness to be addressed.
