Experience Stern | News & Events

On Sunday, August 11, 2024, NYU Stern's Department of Accounting hosted the 2024 Junior Theory Conference. The conference aims to provide an opportunity for junior faculty and PhD students to exchange research ideas and stimulate new ideas and paths for theoretical accounting research.

Hosted by the NYU Stern Accounting Department, the conference aims to provide a forum for the exchange and flourishing of theoretical and theory-guided research in accounting. While the conference focuses on theoretical work, it also invites papers that are guided by economic theory but use other methodologies, such as reduced-form empirical archival research, structural estimation, and experimental research. The conference encourages crossovers with other areas of the social sciences that can contribute to, and benefit from, insights in accounting research. The conference featured paper presentations with a discussant assigned to each paper, as well as three keynote speakers.

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "NYU Stern’s EMBA program emphasized both the integrity and quality of the program and the diversity of classmates. I was looking to learn from my cohort as much as I learned from my professors, and I am incredibly grateful that that has happened."

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- “NYU Stern’s approach to the question of change is catchy. It sets up, for its students, a tagline, daring them to fill the gap in “Change:…… it”, urges them to create their own manifesto and asks them to explain how they will “dream,” “drive” or “dare it.” “Change,” they write, is “the only constant.”
 

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — “'EQ is core to Stern’s values; we screen for it, we stress it in our admissions process. I can confirm that when I speak with employers (recruiters and hiring managers) and ask about what they see from our students that is different, this is 100% what they say – Stern MBAs are team-oriented, cooperative, fun to be around, different and unique, and possess high EQ. At the same time, Stern MBAs bring strong tech and quantitative skills to the table. Data analytics is part of Stern’s core curriculum and is built into so many classes throughout the MBA experience. In today’s global, tech-driven environment, it’s a cost of entry requirement for doing business.'”

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "This may seem obvious because 'New York' is in our name and is our location, but it goes so much deeper than that; what sets us apart is how we leverage NYC across many dimensions! Stern is in and of the city, and we’ve made it a priority to be intertwined with it. What does this mean for our students? The many benefits of this one-of-a-kind city we call home are core to our MBA programs, from our curriculum, to internships, to careers and lifelong peer networks."

Excerpt from Find MBA -- “'My goal is to make sure students are critical thinkers and lifelong learners. I encourage them to dabble with AI, but try not to put it on a pedestal,' Seamans says.
