Valuing Diversity PhD Scholarships

The American Marketing Association Foundation is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2018 Valuing Diversity PhD Scholarships: Mariella Zavala (3rd year student at the University of California, Irvine), Esther Uduehi (2nd year student at the Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania) and Samantha Velez (1st year student at the University of Wyoming).

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. Scholarship Program, the AMAF seeks to widen the opportunities for underrepresented populations to attend marketing doctoral programs. In 2003, the Foundation awarded its first two scholarships under the Valuing Diversity Ph.D. Scholarship Program. The scholarships are funded by the donors of the AMAF’s Valuing Diversity Fund.
