GRADUATE SEMINARS IN ACCOUNTING RESEARCH.
Two accounting research seminars were instituted as formal courses by the Indiana University Graduate School of Business, Bloomington, in the first semester 1963-64, after several years of informal experimentation. One seminar is for doctoral candidates, the other for masters degree candidates. The two differ in objectives and approach. The objectives of the doctoral candidates seminar in accounting research have been mentioned. First, to prepare each candidate to proceed with the research and writing of his doctoral dissertation promptly upon the completion of his course work. Second, to help doctoral candidates to become aware of needed research in accounting, and to stimulate them to do research whether or not academic credit or pay is involved. The objectives of the seminar for masters degree candidates is to motivate such candidates to continue professional education after completing their formal education. It aims to broaden the knowledge of the candidates of current and nascent developments. It also aims to help candidates improve their ability to understand what is involved in doing accounting research and in communicating the results of the research.
