Eastern Michigan University finance professor awarded top faculty adviser honor by the Finance Management Association
YPSILANTI — The Finance Management Association (FMA) has awarded Ramesh Garg, professor, finance and international business, Department of Accounting and Finance, Eastern Michigan University, with the FMA International Superior Faculty Adviser Award.
The FMA student chapter at Eastern Michigan nominated Garg for dedication, hard work and meaningful contributions to the chapter. Successful faculty advisers help students plan programs, guide chapter activities and ensure succession planning.
“FMA truly appreciates all of the hard work Ramesh has provided to the FMA chapter at Eastern Michigan,” said Shannon Walsh, director of student programs, FMA International, University of South Florida. “Dr. Garg has gone above and beyond his standard role of adviser. FMA is very fortunate to have Ramesh Garg involved with the student chapter programs.”
Garg was appreciative of the award and praised the student chapter’s president, Hamdan El-Ayache, and vice president, Rachel Naemi.
“I want to express my special thanks to Hamadan and Rachel,” he said. “Without their hard work and initiative, we would not have received this recognition.”
FMA was established in 1970 and has become the global leader in developing and disseminating knowledge about financial decision making. FMA's members include academicians and practitioners across the world. Visit fma.org for more information.
