The following is a working list of resources for La Familia members who conduct research on our Latinx community, teach Latinx students, and are involved in serving Latinx students, faculty, and communities. If you have a resource you would like to share on this webpage, please email lafamiliascholars@gmail.com
Academic, Research and Managerial Careers in leading Business Schools and Universities worldwide
Excelencia’s in Education remains committed to Ensuring America’s Future by increasing Latino college completion. Excelencia’s most recent analysis of public data on enrollment, degree completion, and degree attainment shows that degree completion gaps have increased between Latino students and their White peers. To close the gap in degree completion, the United States requires a tactical plan to reach the Latino degree attainment goal of 6.2 million degrees earned by 2030. This plan must include strategies to help Latinos accelerate degree completion while supporting increased attainment for all students.

The Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU) was established in 1986 with a founding membership of eighteen institutions. Because of HACU’s exemplary leadership on behalf of the nation’s youngest and fastest-growing population, the Association rapidly grew in numbers and national impact.
Today, HACU represents more than 500 colleges and universities committed to Hispanic higher education success in the U.S., Puerto Rico, Latin America, Spain and U.S. school districts. Although our member institutions in the U.S. represent only 17% of all higher education institutions nationwide, together they are home to two-thirds of all Hispanic college students. HACU is the only national educational association that represents Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs).
Research on Hispanics/Latinos
Prospanica provides tools and resources that enrich the lives of Hispanic students and professionals to create a vibrant future for our nation. Your donations are essential to our mission and the initiatives that give our members forward momentum.
The PhD Project was founded in 1994 with the goal of diversifying corporate America by diversifying the role models in the front of classrooms.
Organizations such as the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU), Excelencia in Education and the Alliance of Hispanic Serving Institutions Educators provide additional information and supports for HSIs. Some provide comprehensive HSI membership lists on their respective Web sites. Institutions on these lists have self-identified as Hispanic-Serving Institutions or emerging Hispanic-Serving Institutions. They generally have not received a federal designation as an HSI, and as such, do not receive federal funding. There may, however, be some overlap among the HACU, Excelencia and Department lists.
Excellence in classroom teaching is a differentiator in today’s academic job market. Beyond compulsory teaching to meet program requirements, most Ph.D. programs do not provide structured experiences to help prepare students for the considerable teaching responsibilities of a tenure-track job. Being purposeful and confident in the classroom can support our research productivity, a primary consideration for tenure-track faculty.
Strategies for Teaching Success is a three-day workshop co-sponsored by The PhD Project, Bentley University, the American Accounting Association and KPMG. The workshop is designed to equip those new to teaching and those seeking continuous development for success in the college classroom.
The Management and Organizational Behavior Teaching Society (MOBTS) is a professional organization for individuals who teach courses in management and organizational behavior. The society was founded in 1974 and incorporated in 1981 as the Organizational Behavior Teaching Society (OBTS), updating its name to MOBTS in July 2017. MOBTS is dedicated to promoting excellence in the teaching of management and organizational behavior. The mission of MOBTS is to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas, information, and materials among its members, as well as to promote the improvement of teaching and research in the field of management and organizational behavior.
Membership in MOBTS is open to individuals who are involved in the teaching of management and organizational behavior, including academic professors, instructors, and graduate students. The society holds an annual conference in the United States, where members can present their research, participate in panel discussions, and network with other professionals in the field. Similar scope conferences are held annually in Australia/New Zealand (MOBTS Oceania), and globally (International MOBTS).
MOBTS also provides opportunities for members to collaborate on teaching and research projects, as well as to participate in professional development workshops and training sessions. The society also publishes two journals, the Journal of Management Education (JME) and Management Teaching Review (MTR), which provide a platform for the publication of original research on teaching and learning in management and organizational behavior, as well as teaching techniques. JME is ranked as a "B" in the Australian Business Deans Council's (ABDC) journal ranking list.
The Management and Organizational Behavior Teaching Society is a valuable resource for individuals who are committed to advancing the field of management and organizational behavior through education and research.
