Joseph A. Alutto Fellowship Fund

School of Management students learning in a class lecture.

Accomplished graduate students in the School of Management receive fellowships through this fund.

This fund provides awards to benefit graduate students pursuing a graduate degree in UB’s School of Management. Awards are given based upon a student's academic accomplishments, as well as their performance as a teaching or research assistant.

Specifically, awards are made to attract or retain promising doctoral students, promote diversity among doctoral students, and recognize academic and scholarly accomplishments. Recipients of this fellowship are selected by the Dean of the School of Management.

The fund, which has helped dozens of students in their academic pursuits, was established by M&T Bank, Mr. S. Arthur Lowe, Dr. and Mrs. Howard Foster, and Dr. and Mrs. Joseph A. Alutto. Dr. Alutto was Dean of the School of Management from 1976-1990.

The UB School of Management: Bullish on brainpower. Invested in Buffalo. Committed to leveraging our leadership. Now, we seek visionary donors who recognize that investing in knowledge, leadership and skills yield immense returns—for UB, our graduates, our community and our world. We proudly invite you to partner with us as we build a future for business that is world-changing.
