Dear Faculty and College/University Administrators,
The Stephenson Entrepreneurship Institute at the E. J. Ourso College of Business at Louisiana State University (www.lsu.edu) is searching for 1 – 2 exceptional first-year doctoral students to be an integral part of the Institute's innovative, interdisciplinary academic environment. These highly competitive assistantships provide awarded graduate students with a diverse work environment and multiple research opportunities. We hope to engage students by the Fall semester of 2008, and would like to begin screening applicants by mid-April of 2008.
Program Details
The Economic Development Assistantship Program provides competitive funding to support first-year doctoral students from a wide range of business or related disciplines including management, economics, public administration, etc.
Economic Development Assistantships carry a stipend ranging from $15,000 - $25,000 for up to four years; the amount depends on academic level attained, academic history, and research experience. Students will be eligible for the tuition exemption program and the health insurance stipend program for fulltime graduate assistants, and students must pay all applicable fees. All graduate assistantships are awarded based on the applicant's grade-point average, GMAT scores, research experience, and letter of recommendation. Students that already possess a master's degree will receive higher priority.
How to Apply
Candidates should contact Dr. Mark Weaver for more information.
