2023 Who Went Where Report
The 2023 WWW survey results are now available in the 2023 WWW Final Report. For the past 21 years,
AMA DocSIG has conducted surveys on doctoral students in the job-seeking stage, providing insights
into the job market. Reports from 2003 to 2021 can be downloaded here.
Despite the pandemic’s impact on the job market from 2019 to 2021, we encouraged students to share
their job search experiences, resulting in variations in the 2020-2021 report compared to previous ones.
Our survey had two parts: Part 1 collected basic information, including the candidate’s name and
institutions, while Part 2 anonymously gathered data on job market experiences, teaching, publications,
and salary.
We promoted survey participation through AMA DocSIG and ELMAR listservs, as well as social media
platforms like Facebook and LinkedIn. If your school wasn’t contacted, please provide your marketing
department doctoral program coordinator’s contact information to Reza Pedarpour,
rpedarpo@kent.edu.
Md Fourkan and Reza Pedarpour from Kent State University designed and administered the surveys,
with input from our volunteer review team to continually enhance the Who Went Where (WWW)
survey and report.
Congratulations to the new Assistant Professors of Fall 2023! The highly anticipated Who Went Where
report is proudly presented by AMA DocSIG.

Dr. Matthew Joseph Emerging Scholar Award
Every year, Dr. Mathew Joseph in collaboration with the AMA DocSIG honors one doctoral student who displays exemplary scholarship and a bright future in the academic discipline.
On behalf of DocSIG, I would like to thank all the DocSIG members who applied and continue to participate and support this wonderful doctoral community.
We had many candidates, each one of them more than worthy of this prestigious award. We had a select panel of three top scholars in the marketing field view the entries. Two rounds of assessment were performed based on the nominees’ publication records, novelty and relevance of research. After a thorough assessment and detailed evaluation of all nominations, a final and unanimous decision was recently made.
The AMA DocSIG is pleased to announce that Rodrigo da Silva Dias from Duke University is the winner of the 2023 DocSIG “Mathew Joseph” Emerging Scholar Award!
Congratulations Rodrigo!
