Subject: Applied Organizational Psychology PhD Program at
HofstraUniversity

Date: December 12, 2008

Dear Dr. Mitchell,

I am the director of the Ph.D. Program in Applied Organizational
Psychology at Hofstra University.  We are recruiting high quality
students for our young Ph.D. program (established in 2004).  I would
appreciate it if you could forward this message and the attached program
brochure to your Master's students who might be interested in pursuing
a Ph.D. in applied organizational psychology.  For Fall, 2009 admission,
the applicant deadline is February 1st.  

Let me briefly highlight some unique features of our doctoral program. 
First, we accept students who have already had a Master's degree in
I/O psychology, or a related discipline, including MBAs.  We do not
accept students who apply directly from their undergraduate program. 
Second, under advisement, we allow Master's students to transfer a
maximum of 38 previous graduate credits into the Ph.D. curriculum,
presenting a unique opportunity for students to lessen their financial
and time burdens.  Third, given our excellent geographic location (25
miles east of Manhattan) and our affiliations with various private and
public organizations, we are able to arrange paid opportunities in I/O
psychology for students who wish to work part-time while pursuing their
Ph.D. at Hofstra University.  In addition to the compensation available
for part-time work, Hofstra University also provides each incoming Ph.D.
student with tuition remission support of around $6,000 per year, for
three years.  

For general inquiries, students are encouraged to contact the Ph.D.
student recruitment committee (Dr. Cong Liu, 516-463-6298,
[log in to unmask] or Dr. Jinyan Fan, 516-463-6349,
[log in to unmask]).  Students may certainly contact me as well
(516-463-6344, [log in to unmask]).   
 
For more information about our Ph.D. program, faculty, and students,
applicants are encouraged to visit our Ph.D. program's website at
