Dr. Deeksha Singh Promoted to Professor at Rutgers School of Business–Camden

Congratulations to Dr. Deeksha Singh on her promotion to Professor at Rutgers University!

Dr. Singh is an internationally recognized scholar whose research examines the relationship between organizations and the institutional environments in which they operate. Grounded in institutional theory, her work explores how firms develop strategies, govern their operations, pursue growth, and achieve performance across diverse economic and regulatory contexts. Her scholarship has made important contributions to the fields of international business and strategy, with particular emphasis on corporate governance, firm internationalization, foreign subsidiary management, and innovation in emerging market economies.

Through her research, Dr. Singh has advanced understanding of how businesses navigate institutional opportunities and constraints in global markets. Her work has examined the international expansion of emerging market firms, ownership and entry mode strategies, subsidiary staffing and performance, and the role of societal trust and formal institutions in shaping organizational outcomes. These contributions have provided valuable insights for both scholars and practitioners seeking to understand the complexities of operating across national borders.

Dr. Singh’s research has been published in many of the most prestigious journals in her field, including the Journal of International Business Studies, Journal of World Business, Global Strategy Journal, Journal of International Management, Human Resource Management, Management International Review, and International Business Review. Her scholarship has received significant recognition from the international academic community, including the Douglas Nigh Best Paper Award from the Academy of Management and the AIB/Temple Best Paper Award from the Academy of International Business. She has also earned multiple conference honors, best paper recognitions, and a Best Reviewer Award from the Academy of International Business.

At Rutgers University–Camden, Dr. Singh’s impact has been recognized through the Chancellor’s Award for Outstanding Research and Creative Activity and the Rutgers School of Business–Camden Annual Research Award. She has also been recognized for excellence in the classroom with the School’s Superior Achievement Award for Teaching.

We are proud to celebrate this well-deserved promotion to Professor and grateful for the impact Dr. Singh continues to have on Rutgers School of Business–Camden through her scholarship, teaching, and service.

If I am chosen and matched with an executive, I will follow through and prepare a one-page report giving honest feedback about the experience. The written summary is due by the start of the next semester. By typing my name in the box to the right I am offering my digital signature in lieu of my handwritten signature.

After the shadowing event, I will write a personal thank you letter to the executive and copy Dr. Kaufman-Scarborough and Ms. Bridget Britton for their records. By typing my name in the box to the right I am offering my digital signature in lieu of my handwritten signature.

After notified of a match, students are responsible for providing personal information to the matched executive (e.g., current resume and cover letter with information on career ambitions). The information on this application is for internal use only, for us to match you as well as possible with and executive from among our alumni database.

BLDP Application

The Spring 2023 Application is now open! 

Priority will be given to applications received by November 18. Applications are accepted until all seats are filled. Space is limited, so apply early!

The seminar application process is our gateway for entry into the program. Upon acceptance into BLDP, students will be emailed their acceptance letter plus a special permission number allowing registration for the BLDP seminar.

Requirements

Seminar applications are solicited each semester and require the following:

  1. Completed application form (at the bottom of this page),
  2. For students with GPA 3.0 – 3.49, two (2) letters of recommendation (one academic; one other)

Rutgers-Camden students are invited to apply to apply for enrollment in the BLDP seminar. All applicants are expected to meet both of the following selection criteria:  (1) have sophomore standing or above and (2) have an overall GPA of 3.0 or above. First-semester transfer students will be evaluated based on their GPA earned at Rutgers. Students who fail to meet these admission criteria may still be allowed to apply for (and possibly enroll in) the BLDP seminar, but they will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

The director balances evaluations to make final decisions on people accepted for the seminar (up to a maximum of 15-20 each semester).

Students who are admitted to the BDLP are required to adopt the BLDP Code of Conduct. A signed contract is required from each student.

Students may count activities toward “leadership units” that were initiated prior to taking a seminar, as long as those activities occured primarily during their enrollment in their academic program.

Application for Admission to BLDP Seminar

Applications for the BLDP Seminar will be ongoing until class is filled.
