Rajiv Sabherwal (pictured), the Emery C. Turner Professor of Information Systems at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, has received a J. William Fulbright Scholar Award. He will spend the 2009-10 academic year at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, as the Fulbright-Queen’s School of Business Research Chair.

“I am greatly honored,” Sabherwal said. “This award will allow me to spend a semester working with faculty and doctoral students at the Queen’s School of Business. In addition to being an exciting opportunity for international exchange, the Fulbright research chair will enable me to expand my current program of research in new directions that are timely and relevant.”

Sabherwal will research knowledge management and business intelligence. He will focus on how they can best be integrated to enhance organizations and society. The Fulbright program announced Sabherwal’s award in April.
