Accountancy Professor Receives Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program Award

Dr. Krivogorsky Receives Fulbright U.S. Scholar Award

Victoria Krivogorsky, accounting professor at the Charles W. Lamden School of Accountancy at San Diego State University’s Fowler College of Business, has received a Fulbright U.S. Scholar Program award to conduct research in Austria. Krivogorsky was selected for the award for the 2021 – 2022 academic year by the 12-member J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship board.

Krivogorsky will conduct her research on sustainability reporting in Austria at Vienna University of Business and Economics starting in August 2021. Her research will focus on the current global trend toward untraditional corporate reporting practices, including the non-financial measure of corporate performance in a small but highly developed economy with a primarily homogenous population measured by ethnicity and religion. 

Established in 1946, the Fulbright Program is the flagship international educational exchange program sponsored by the U.S. government. It is designed to increase understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other nations. Fulbright Scholar Program awardees engage in cutting-edge research and expand their professional networks, often continuing research collaboration started abroad and laying the groundwork for future partnerships between institutions. 

The program is funded through an annual appropriation made by the U.S. Congress to the U.S. Department of State through the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. Read Press Release.
