About the lecture →Giving in Action
Through the generosity of Prof. Jagdish and Mrs. Madhu Sheth, doctoral students at the Goizueta Business School of Emory University receive an additional $1,000 each in dissertation support. Named the Sheth Fellowship, the award is extended to each student who successfully passes their comprehensive exam — a major milestone in a doctoral student’s life — and may be used for data, software, experiments, or travel and training. Total grants reached $100,000 for the 100th Ph.D. student, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of the Goizueta Business School.
