Junior Accounting Theory Conference

We are excited to announce the 2024 Junior Accounting Theory Conference. The conference will be held in person on Sunday, August 11th, 2024, at Tisch School of Business, 40 West 4th Street, New York, NY 10012. Check-in will be on floor 4, room 412.

The conference aims to provide an opportunity for junior faculty and PhD students to exchange research ideas and stimulate new ideas and paths for theoretical accounting research. The conference has proven to be a great venue for early-stage work. We invite early-career researchers to submit working papers that incorporate formal theory, including papers that implement theory-based estimation to address accounting-related research questions. There is no specific conference theme. Working papers at all stages of the research process are welcome.
