The LeBow College of Business's Center for Corporate Governance invites applications for a Ph.D. fellowship in corporate governance. The Corporate Governance Fellowship is for outstanding Ph.D. students in finance who have research interests in the area of corporate governance. LeBow College's Center for Corporate Governance is under the direction of Professor Ralph Walkling, the Stratakis Endowed Chair in Corporate Governance and Accountability.
