Texas DBA Research Conference
The inaugural Texas DBA Research Conference brings together doctoral students and faculty from DBA programs across Texas to showcase applied business research, exchange ideas, and strengthen connections within the growing DBA community. Practitioner-scholar research bridges rigorous academic inquiry with real-world business challenges, generating evidence-based insights and solutions that advance organizational performance, leadership, and business practice.
Hosted by Texas State University's McCoy College of Business, the conference provides a collaborative forum for DBA students to present dissertation projects and other applied research. Participants will have the opportunity to receive constructive feedback, engage in meaningful discussions with fellow practitioner-scholars, and build relationships that foster collaboration and advance applied business research across Texas.
