Professor Kammeyer-Mueller has published many peer-reviewed articles and book chapters in premier outlets, including the Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Applied Psychology, and Personnel Psychology. He currently serves as an associate editor for the Journal of Applied Psychology, having previously held the same role at Personnel Psychology. As an educator and program leader, Dr. Kammeyer-Mueller has served as the faculty director for the Master of Human Resources and Industrial Relations (MHRIR) program and the Center for Human Resources and Labor studies, as well as the five-year leadership track for the Academy of Management’s Research Methods Division.
