Russell Ackoff Doctoral Student Fellowships
The Wharton Risk Management and Decision Processes Center is pleased to announce the recipients of the Wharton Risk Center Russell Ackoff Doctoral Student Fellowships. The Fellowships provide funding for doctoral research on human decision making at Penn. The funding takes the form of research awards in the $1,000-$4,000 range, funds that can be used to support data collection, travel, and other research-related expenses.
The research fellowships are named in honor of an endowment provided to the Wharton School by the Anheuser-Busch Charitable Trust. Russell Ackoff, Professor Emeritus of Management Science life's work was dedicated to furthering our understanding of human behavior in organizations. It is in the spirit of continuing this legacy by supporting doctoral training that the fellowships have been named.
We hope these Fellowship awards will facilitate the development of a doctoral student research community in the area of decision making under uncertainty. As such, in addition to the direct funding, award recipients will be invited to participate in Center-sponsored seminars hosted at the Wharton School.
