March 2008 Risk
Temple ranked 4th in the world in international business research productivity by The Asia Pacific Journal of Management
In a recent study conducted by The Asia Pacific Journal of Management, Temple University was ranked 3rd in the U.S. and 4th in the world for international business research productivity. Fox faculty members Masaaki Kotabe, Ram Mudambi, Arvind Parkhe, and David Reeb were identified as among the most prolific IB authors in the world.

Entitled, “Prolific authors and institutions in leading international business journals” the The Asia Pacific Journal of Management study was driven by two research questions:

1. Who are the most prolific authors in the leading international business journals?

2. Which educational institutions appear poised to lead international business scholarship?

Global Business Project links MBA’s around the world
When it comes to the global economy, there’s a huge difference between reading about it and actually experiencing it. Thanks to Temple CIBER’s leadership role in a new consortium called the Global Business Project (GBP), two MBA students from the Fox School of Business have the opportunity to do the latter.

The GBP is an intercollegiate MBA course developed by eight Centers for International Business Education and Research (CIBERs).

The project provides MBA students from premier business schools with the opportunity to work on real issues facing multinational or local companies in emerging markets.

Insight Dubai: Two Fox students learn about Islam and the Middle East
Two Fox School of Business students ventured last month into the Big Apple of the Middle East, Dubai in the United Arab Emirates, to participate in a five-day international leadership conference with young women from all over the world. The event, Insight Dubai, which took place March 23-27, was presented by Dubai Women’s College.

The trip was funded through CIBER’s $1.3 million grant from the U.S. Department of Education. One of the CIBER’s main thrusts is promoting global perspectives, in particular, better understanding of the Middle East, North Africa and India.
