esearchers (ERIM Members) and junior members (ERIM Associate Members). The ERIM Membership Charter regulates ERIM membership and describes the appointment procedures. ERIM Doctoral Programme ERIM offers an advanced five‐year Erasmus Doctoral Programme in Business and Management. The first two years are devoted to the course work and are collected in the research master programme: the ERIM Master of Philosophy in Business Research. The last three years are devoted to dissertation work. The PhD programme is discussed briefly in the next section; the ERIM research master programme is discussed in section 1.2.2. 1.3 Programmes 1.3.1 Research Programmes The research undertaken by ERIM focuses on the management of the firm in its environment, its intra‐ and inter‐firm relations, and its business processes in their interdependent connections. A firm is best described as an organisation dedicated to the production of goods and services. This domain of research is called Research in Management. The joint ERIM research programme contains five (sub) research programmes: 1 Business Processes, Logistics and Information Systems (LIS) Organising for Performance (ORG) Marketing (MKT) Finance & Accounting (F&A) Strategy & Entrepreneurship (S&E) Each of the five ERIM programmes brings its own approach to the study of business processes which originates from its specific area of expertise, with sufficient overlapping interfaces to achieve integration. The aim of the LIS research group is to be at the forefront of the developments in logistics and supply chain management in interaction with information and communication systems and to make a major contribution both to management science and to management practice. Much of LIS logistics research is inspired by the new opportunities offered by innovative information and communication systems and technologies. The research is interdisciplinary (taking into account research paradigms from operations research, logistics, supply chain management, information systems, computer science, organisation science, and human factors). The LIS programme is a coherent research network of researchers from both the Erasmus School of Economics and the Rotterdam School of Management. LIS research is embedded in practice and innovative, and is at the forefront of the business and science community. The research programme is organised around five 1 For a full account of the ERIM Research Programme, the reader is referred to the ERIM Midterm Review dated July 2007 and the ERIM website www.erim.eur.nl 4 ERIM PhD Reference Guide
focus research themes within supply chain management: 1. Supply chain optimisation and planning; 2. Sustainable supply chain management; 3. Terminal optimisation; 4.Transportation management; 5. Smart business networks. The ORG programme aims to develop and test fundamental theory in applied organisational research. The programme potentially covers a vast range of issues, from the very micro level of analysis (e.g., the behaviour of individuals and teams in organisations; the genetic determinants of occupational choice) to the very macro level (e.g., the development and behaviour of networks and populations of organisations; the nation‐wide consequences of organisational forms). In practice too, all these levels of analysis and associated research questions are addressed by researchers within the ORG research programme. The sub‐programmes of ORG focus on Organisational Behaviour and Human Resource Management, Corporate Engagement, Sustainability, and Governance. The MKT programme focuses on both managerial and consumer decision‐making processes in marketing. The programme’s mission is to contribute to the marketing body of knowledge in a way that has academic rigour, leads to new scientific insights and has practical relevance. The MKT research group aims at covering all three major domains of research in marketing: Consumer Behaviour, Marketing Management and Strategy, and Marketing Modelling. The F&A programme aims to cover all areas of finance and accounting, and encourages research that is relevant for a broad audience in the finance and accounting profession. A large part of its research is empirical, based on various commercial or hand‐collected data sets and econometric techniques, but the F&A research group also works with theory, numerical calibrations, and experiments. Much of the more recent research takes a behavioural view and tests or analyses behavioural models with the same methodological rigour as is usual for classical models. Over time, four specialties have arisen in F&A programme: a large group of people work on asset management, a research topic that benefits from close ties to local asset management companies; second, a very successful field of corporate governance spans the two sub‐disciplines finance and accounting and therefore benefits from an integrated finance and accounting programme; third, research in real estate finance, a research topic that fits well with Rotterdam being one of the most dynamic and expanding cities in Western Europe; fourth, a sizeable group is specialised in behavioural research in accounting, employing both survey and experimental data, thus benefitting from the presence of the Erasmus Behavioural Lab. The S&E programme focuses on strategic renewal and firm performance. The programme endeavours to answer fundamental scientific and societal questions concerning the renewal of large multi‐unit firms in an international context, and how they reconcile the conflicting forces of change and stability. Particular emphasis is placed on the circumstances under which strategic renewal becomes a selection and/or an adaptation process, and on the roles played by managers at the corporate and unit level in renewal journeys. 1 Erasmus Research Institute of Management 5
