Greenlaw Wins Fulbright Scholar AwardSavannah, GA--November 22, 2005--Raymond Greenlaw, dean of the School of Computing at Armstrong Atlantic State University, has won a Senior Fulbright Fellowship to lecture at Chiang Mai University in Thailand during the 2005-06 academic year. Greenlaw will be conducting research on grid computing and lecturing on parallel computing, graph theory, and algorithms. Recipients of Fulbright Scholar awards undergo a rigorous and extremely competitive application process. They are selected on the basis of academic or professional achievement and demonstrated extraordinary leadership potential in their fields. The awards are granted according to the United States Department of State and the J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board. Greenlaw is one of approximately 850 U.S. faculty and professionals who will travel abroad to some 150 countries for the 2005-06 academic year through the Fulbright Scholar Program. Over the past six years, on average, only 18 Fulbrights have been awarded to Georgians. Established in 1946 under legislation introduced by the late Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, the program's purpose is to build mutual understanding between the people of the United States and other countries. Previously, Greenlaw was awarded Fulbrights to Spain (1995-96) and Iceland (1999-2000). He is one of a very select group to have received three Fulbrights. |
