A Discussion on Mental Health and Academia

Keywords: mental health, wellbeing, social support

Abstract: The recent JME special issue on mental health and well-being brought focus to the challenges for professors, Ph.D. candidates, and students to maintain good mental health. Our roundtable will focus on discussing these challenges in academia and in particular business schools. We will discuss personal experiences and research informed potential solutions to these challenges. We want to provide a highly interactive discussion to foster a dialogue, help normalize these conversations and to find support within MOBTS.
