The Organizations and Management area at the Merage School expects to take a few new PhD students who would start next Fall. PhD students at Merage always have opportunities to work with multiple faculty members. Therefore, we decide on PhD admissions as a group (i.e., everyone in the O&M area has a conversation). The application deadline is in January (see https://merage.uci.edu/programs/phd/ for details).

Prof. Bauman is very interested to begin working with new Ph.D. students who are interested one of three areas of his research: (1) how individuals think about and behave in situations that involve ethics/morality or justice/fairness, (2) how individuals perceive and respond to workplace diversity, and (3) effective negotiation tactics.

Consistent with the commitment of the University of California to inclusive excellence, Prof. Bauman would welcome applications from students who can contribute to those goals. For more information, please visit https://inclusion.uci.edu/about/.
