SSBM Geneva is pleased to recognize Prof. Dr. Hamid Mattiello, SSBM professor and DBA mentor, for his selection as a Faculty Mentor in the Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (IISE) Future Faculty Fellows (3F) Program for a second consecutive year (2025–2027).
For the 2026–2027 cohort, Prof. Mattiello has been appointed to mentor a PhD fellow from the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA), providing individualized guidance in developing their research portfolio, refining teaching and pedagogical strategies, and preparing for a successful academic career.
The IISE 3F Program helps PhD scholars understand the academic job market and navigate faculty recruitment. Monthly seminars address research and teaching statements, interviews, job talks and teaching demonstrations. One-on-one faculty mentorship offers guidance on professional development and academic career expectations.
The two educational approaches are complementary. IISE 3F helps research-trained PhD scholars translate academic Know-How into professional academic Do-How. SSBM Geneva supports experienced executives, entrepreneurs and professionals in developing academic Know-How alongside practical Do-How through practice-oriented doctoral study, research training, experiential learning, coaching and DBA mentorship.
Proximity-Based Learning and Mentorship describes the value of close interaction with faculty, practitioners and peers. Through dialogue, observation and collaborative inquiry, candidates can connect professional challenges with academic research and apply new insights to practice.
Your professional experience marks the start of your doctoral journey, not the end of your intellectual development. SSBM Geneva aims to help doctoral candidates investigate real business challenges, develop original research insights and strengthen research-informed decision-making and responsible leadership. Internationally engaged mentors can bring broader academic perspectives to this journey.
