June 06, 2012
Muhammad Shakeel Sadiq Jajja, a PhD Management candidate at the Suleman Dawood School of Business (SDSB) working under supervision of Prof. Dr. Syed Zahoor Hassan and Prof. Dr. Shaukat Ali Brah, has been selected by the Association of Management Development Institutions in South Asia (AMDISA) for AMDISA-Commonwealth Doctoral Fellowship. Shakeel works in the area of supply chain and innovation management.
The broader objective of this fellowship is to contribute to the development of South Asian academic perspectives, networks and communities in management and related areas. The fellowship sponsors comparative studies in management and/or related social sciences and other disciplines in two or three South Asian countries, including the Fellow’s home country, which are members of the Commonwealth (Bangladesh, India, Maldives, Pakistan and Sri Lanka). In addition the AMDISA-Commonwealth Doctoral Fellowship also provides academic-institutional assistance to South Asian Ph.D. scholars and younger academics.
The fellowship will cover Shakeel’s travel and related expenses to one or two above-mentioned Commonwealth member countries in South Asia/South-east Asia, to supplement his Doctoral research in the home country. Shakeel intends to collect data from Indian companies and will travel to various Indian cities for this purpose.
