Richard Pace '87 Scholarship for Applied Economics Studies

This scholarship was established by Richard Pace ’87 in honor of economics professors Dr. Said Atri and Dr. John Kane for their over 40 years of commitment to excellence in undergraduate and graduate student instruction and mentoring – particularly in the area of applied quantitative economics. Richard Pace was a beneficiary of Drs. Atri and Kane’s passion for the field, superior instruction, and generosity of time both during and after his time at SUNY Oswego, and this scholarship is designed to assist other students in pursuing educational excellence and future careers in applied economics. To qualify for this scholarship, a student must:
a.) Have a declared major within the economics department, with preference to an applied mathematical economics major, or a minor in a quantitative field such as applied statistics, business analytics, mathematics, or computer science.
b.) Have a cumulative SUNY Oswego GPA of 3.2 or higher.
c.) Apply in their sophomore or junior year, for an award to be received in the subsequent academic year.
