Honoring commitment, involvement and inspiration. That’s the purpose of The PhD Project’s newly established Hall of Fame. Each year our Hall of Fame will honor a select few who have greatly inspired many. We’ll recognize those who have sustained an unwavering commitment to our mission. And we’ll bring tribute to the leaders among us who have achieved significant encouragement and impact within our network of minority business doctoral students and faculty.

The Hall of Fame program supplements our recognition of the Trailblazers (click to read more), which honors individuals who overcame significant obstacles and forged new paths in the academic world before The PhD Project was established. The Trailblazers remain an inspiration to us all.

Nominations for 2013 inductees will be accepted December 1, 2012 to April 30, 2013. Please download the Nomination Form for more details and consider nominating those who have been instrumental in fulfilling The PhD Project's mission and had a profound impact on our network.
