Current Issue:
The 2007-2008 Graduate Student Achievements - [View]

We began to compile a record of the achievements of Stony Brook's graduate students in 1991 and have published an issue each academic year since then. This issue covers the 2007-2008 academic year.

The accomplishments of Stony Brook's graduate students are quite extraordinary. They include winning numerous, prestigious, national and international fellowships and research grants. Our students have also established an impressive presence in the literatures of their disciplines with publications in many of the best scholarly journals and books. They have achieved recognition in the creative arts with acclaimed exhibitions and performances. Stony Brook's graduate students also won awards for their excellence as teachers.
Our students get involved fully in the intellectual activities of their field of scholarship by participating in conferences and workshops. Finally, graduates of Stony Brook's programs leave us to take up a wide variety of professional appointments. Many of them are Post-Doctoral fellowships or faculty positions at some of the nation's finest universities. In addition, Stony Brook's graduates carry the knowledge and expertise that they gained here to many prestigious institutions overseas, thus enhancing Stony Brook's international reputation as an outstanding research University.

The success of Stony Brook's graduate enterprise is rooted in the success of the faculty of the University in research, scholarship and creative activities. The international reputation of Stony Brook's faculty attracts outstanding students to our graduate programs from across the country and around the world. Our educational programs and the opportunities to work with dedicated faculty mentors develop the potential that students bring with them so that they become independent researchers and scholars. Graduate education lies at the heart of a research University and this publication demonstrates the vitality of the research, scholarly and creative activities underway at Stony Brook. The students whose accomplishments make up this document deserve recognition for their achievements and our thanks for what they have contributed to the intellectual life of the campus and to the reputation of our University. The faculty who have guided these efforts and the staff and administration of the University who help to foster an environment in which scholastic excellence is valued and in which outstanding graduate education can take place all played important roles in the successes documented here.

The achievements listed here required hard work by many people and all who contributed should feel a sense of pride in the accomplishments of these students. My congratulations and thanks to all concerned.
