NEWS - REMEMBERING HANS SIGGAARD JENSEN 

 

Message from EDAMBA Presdsent Dimitris Assimakopoulos

 
"This year we fondly remembered our fabulous Honorary President Hans Siggaard Jensen, who after more than 35 years of enormous (pro-bono) contributions sadly passed away, after a painful fight with cancer in late June 2024."
 
"Hans will always be remembered and missed as our great friend and mentor, trained in the philosophy of science at UCLA and cross- and inter-disciplinary science, from philosophy to software engineering, knowledge management, and higher education across Europe and the world, and initiated so many EDAMBA projects at the Universities of Copenhagen, Copenhagen Business School, and Aarhus School of Education."
 
 
 
"Hans's wife Bodil traveled from Copenhagen to Barcelona and shared our Gala Dinner at the winter Consortium. We expressed our love and immense sympathy to Bodil who has always been there with Hans in so many EDAMBA missions from day 1, when Hans was elected to serve as the Founding EDAMBA President-elect in the Stockholm School of Economics. We with Bodil praised Hans's legendary courage to continue leading several of our activities for more than three decades!!!"
 
"On a personal note, I will never forget that together with Hans we upstarted our EDAMBA Winter Academy on Doctoral Supervision and the emergence of a Global Research Landscape - back in 2008, see photo from Chamonix / Mont Blanc. "
 
 
 
 
 

EDAMBA EIASM consortium - 'a truly impactful learning experience'

Thank you to more than 40 Consortium participants and faculty for an inpsiring consortium at Esade in Barcelona in January 2025. We were pleased to engage with academics from 25 institutions in 13 countries. The final day focused on the DBA and how to ensure quality or supervision and impact with discussion facilitated by Dimitris Assimakopoulos and Ulrich Hommel.

 
 
 
Day 2 of the Consortium has started with Radu Godina presenting the use of AI for research in management and business adminsitration and demonstrating how automated tools cannot identify AI generated content in publications. He went on to discuss how PhD students experience feedback and to facilitate a lively discussion on how PhD and DBA doctoral programmes need to change.

AACSB  EDAMBA REPORT

AACSB International (AACSB) and the European Doctoral Programmes Association in Management and Business Administration (EDAMBA) released a new report that evaluates the global landscape of business doctoral degree programs.


The report was inspired by AACSB’s 2013 Doctoral Education Task Force, which recommended that business doctoral programs explore new innovations to create impact, while meeting the demands of business and business education. In 2019, business schools were again surveyed to gather new opinions and insights on the challenges facing business doctoral programs globally. "Doctoral education is changing, a reality further heightened by the impacts of Covid-19," said Dimitris Assimakopoulos, President of EDAMBA.

 
 
 

EDAMBA aims to achieve its mission through three pillars of activity:
1. The Annual Meeting
2. The Summer Research Academy
3. The EDAMBA-EIASM Consortium of Doctoral Supervision


EDAMBA engages in global collaboration across networks
1. European Code of Practice
2. EQUAL
3. AACSB
