Doctoral Student in Accounting Represents U.S. at the European Accounting Doctoral Colloquium
Lauren Dreher Cunningham, a doctoral student in accounting at the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas, represented the United States at the European Accounting Association Doctoral Colloquium and Annual Congress in Estonia.
Cunningham spent three days with 34 other doctoral students from all across Europe. Each student presented research and received feedback from faculty and fellow attendees. Each year, the association selects a single doctoral student to represent the United States at the colloquium.
Cunningham also attended the European Accounting Association Annual Congress, where she presented a paper based on her dissertation.
She described the opportunity as invaluable. "I met doctoral students and faculty with similar research interests,” Cunningham said. “If I'm lucky, these contacts could develop into future co-authors and allow me to research accounting and auditing issues that are important internationally."
