2011-2012 Valuing Diversity Ph.D. Scholarships
Call for Applications
Due June 1, 2011

The American Marketing Association Foundation (AMAF), in conjunction with the AMA Academic Council, established a scholarship program in 2003 focused on creating scholarship funds for populations underrepresented in the marketing profession. Through its Valuing Diversity Ph.D. Scholarships Program, the AMAF seeks to widen the opportunities for underrepresented populations to attend marketing doctoral programs. For the 2011-2012 academic year, several $1,000 scholarships will be granted to students currently enrolled in a Ph.D. program. The scholarships will be funded by the donors to the AMAF’s Valuing Diversity Fund. Past applicants are strongly encouraged to reapply. Applicants for Valuing Diversity Ph.D. Scholarships must meet the following requirements:

  • They must be from one of the following populations underrepresented in the marketing profession: African American, Hispanic American, or Native American.
  • They must be a U.S. citizen or a permanent U.S. resident.
  • They must be enrolled, on campus, in a full-time AACSB accredited marketing doctoral program, and have successfully completed at least one year.
  • They have not previously received a Valuing Diversity Scholarship.
