Mellen Series Research Seminars
The primary function of the Mellen Research Seminar series is to promote and enrich the research environment at the Boler College.
Each semester, researchers from all business disciplines, including accounting, economics, finance, logistics, management, and marketing, present their current research projects to our faculty, students, and invited guests. The seminars provide a venue that aids both Boler faculty as well as guest speakers from other institutions an opportunity to interact and improve their research projects. Seminars are a critical resource that help faculty to consistently produce high quality research.
When available, drafts of working papers will be supplied in advance of each seminar.
