The management & organization (M&O) department at the Robert H. Smith School
of Business, University of Maryland, consists of 20 core faculty including tenure-track,
visiting, and teaching professors. The group's interests and responsibilities cover
the following areas: strategy, entrepreneurship, organizational behavior, and human
resources.
M&O faculty are proud of the department's very strong track record in research
as well as teaching. As a group, we are particularly interested in and excited by
topics such as innovation and entrepreneurship, intangible assets, management of
uncertainty, and social networks. A recent analysis of publications in the most
prestigious strategy, OB, and HR journals indicated that, on a worldwide basis,
M&O ranked among the top 10 over the period 1997-2003 and among the top 5 over the
period 2001-2003.
Some other indicators of the strength and scholarly reputation
of M&O faculty include:
- five Fellows, including a past Dean of Fellows, of the Academy of Management
- Past President & Current President-Elect of Academy of Management
- two members of the 11-member board of governors of the Academy of Management
- six University of Maryland Distinguished Scholar-Teachers, a campus-wide
recognition
- multiple editorships and editorial board memberships on highly prestigious
academic journals
- multiple best paper awards from prestigious journals and academies
