28 MEN GIVEN FELLOWSHIPS FOR BUSINESS RESEARCH

Eight men from the government service, and twelve others who have also experienced ability and interest in basic governmental problems, have been chosen from 330 candidates as recipients for study and research at the Graduate School of Business Administration, during the academic year beginning next September, Dean John H. Williams announced today.

Ten have been awarded Littauer Fellowships, which are open to students who have a distinguished record of advanced university graduate study in the social sciences combined usually with actual experience in the government service. The other ten have been awarded Administration Fellowships, which are given to candidates who have less extensive experience in the study and practice of government than Littauer Fellows.

Registration Limited

The Fellows devote their time to research seminars and to collateral courses in other graduate schools of the University. Registration in the School is limited to the fellowship holders and a few others with similar qualifications.

The School does not attempt to prepare expert technicians for particular branches of the public service. It seeks rather to provide a thorough grounding in the fundamental principles and problems of public administration without reference to a particular branch of the public service.

The instruction, while necessarily familiarizing the student with many specialized governmental problems, is designed primarily to provide a grasp of public administration in its broader phases. A primary objective of the School is to attract students of real intellectual distinction and to bring them together in an atmosphere of research and inquiry conducive to a better understanding of the long-range significance of public problems.
