Second Annual SMU-UTD ‘Cowtown’ Accounting Research Conference – 2025
The Jindal School of Management at the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) and The Edwin L. Cox School of Business at Southern Methodist University (SMU) are proud to host the 2nd Cowtown Accounting Research Conference on Friday, November 7, 2025. The goal is to provide a venue that encourages debates and discussions encompassing important accounting research topics.
The 2nd Annual conference will be held at the Davidson-Gundy Alumni Center on UTD’s beautiful campus. We are also proud to show off our city, Dallas-Fort Worth is a major financial hub of the US and a hotbed of innovation and entrepreneurship. It has the country’s third largest airport and is rapidly growing where cities such as Frisco are booming with new projects, businesses, and communities. Dallas has been the only city to host a Super Bowl, a World Series, and a NBA Championship game in the same calendar year. The AT&T Stadium is the world’s largest column-free room. The Statue of Liberty would be able to stand inside the stadium with 15 feet of clearance with the retractable roof closed.
