Dissertation Proposal Award

2007 Winners and Finalists

 

Encouraging and supporting business school faculty is central to the success of many of The Aspen Institute's Center for Business Education initiatives. In hopes of nurturing relationships with the next generation of faculty concerned with issues of environmental, ethical, and social importance, we introduced the Dissertation Proposal Award to encourage and recognize students showing interest in these issues while in their Ph.D. programs.

 

Winners and finalists were selected from the forty-three Ph.D. students from thirteen countries who submitted relevant proposals to the competition.

 

ANASTASIA O'ROURKE, Yale University
"What Does Cleantech Create?"
DROR ETZION, IESE Business School
"Metrics of Sustainability"

 

The 2007 winners were celebrated at an event in New York City in November, 2007. In addition to this, both Anastasia and Dror were connected to outstanding faculty and university centers with similar research interests, are working with the Aspen Institute to find quality venues to present their work, and have received an honorarium, amongst other benefits.
