IMR Student Essay Competition 2008
IIMB Management Review (IMR) is pleased to announce the tenth annual Student Essay Competition, open to postgraduate and doctoral students of all management institutions in India. Prize-winning entries will receive a cash award and also be published in the journal.
Articles submitted for the competition may cover aspects of general management; corporate strategy, policy and governance; finance, control and law; public policy; IT; marketing; OB/HR; technology and manufacturing; and related areas like economics and social sciences. They must be conceptually sound and methodologically rigorous, extend knowledge on particular topics of management either through empirical work or by building on existing theory, and draw out the implications of the research for practitioners.
We are looking for:
• Application papers that draw innovatively on existing theory and practice to solve management problems
• Qualitative research aimed at developing frameworks for advancing existing theory, or synthesising existing concepts into new theories
• Originality in thinking, writing and synthesis.
Authors of prizewinning essays must be prepared to revise them before publication, as recommended by the referees and the editors of IMR.
Eligibility and Coverage :
1. All current full time post-graduate and doctoral students of Indian management schools are eligible to submit their essays.
2. Articles should not have been previously published or submitted elsewhere. Where articles are company specific, a written clearance from the company is required to be attached with the submission.
3. Articles must not exceed 6000 words, exclusive of appendices, charts and annexures. Entrants may refer to the IMR competition rules for style and format. Entries not complying with these guidelines may be disqualified.
4. Joint authorship of up to three is permitted.
Evaluation :
1. The entries will be evaluated by a panel of judges comprising academics and experts from industry. The criteria will include clarity of presentation, adequacy of theoretical and research framework, adequacy of data analysis (where
applicable), contribution to the literature, legitimacy of conclusions and wider application. The panel’s decisions are final and no correspondence or representations will be entertained.
2. The panel will award three prizes.
3. IMR reserves the right to withhold a prize if no entry is considered worthy of it.
Prizes and Closing Date :
1. The First, Second and Third Prizes carry cash awards of Rs 20,000, Rs 15,000 and Rs 10,000 respectively.
2. In the case of joint authors, the prize money applicable to that category will be divided among the authors.
3. In case of a tie, each tied article will be awarded the full prize money applicable to that rank.
4. The closing date for submission of entries, complete in all respects, is August 11, 2008. Submissions should be superscribed ‘IMR Student Essay Competition 2008’, and addressed to:
