Presidential Young Investigator Award

该奖项在国家科学基金会青年总统奖计划下为Mark S. Mizruchi博士提供支持。该计划的目标是为全国最杰出和最有前途的年轻科学和工程教师提供研究支持。该奖项旨在提高美国学术机构的能力，以满足学术和工业研究和教学对高素质科学和工程人员的需求。该奖项将允许研究者继续研究将社会网络思想应用于组织理论和政治社会学的问题。他的大部分工作都集中在大公司的行为上。他感兴趣的是决定企业支持的政府政策类型的因素。Mizruchi博士的研究重点是一家公司对另一家公司施加的市场约束以及共同机构股东的数量等因素如何决定两家公司是否会支持相同的政策。他还关注公司用来处理资金需求的方法。重点是当非金融公司陷入财务困难时，金融机构的代表是否加入董事会，以及依赖资本的公司可获得的替代方案类型以及影响如何筹集资本的因素。

This award provides support to Dr. Mark S. Mizruchi under the National Science Foundation's Young Presidential Awards program. The objectives of this program are to provide research support to the Nation's most outstanding and promising young science and engineering faculty. The awards are intended to improve the capability of U.S. academic institutions to respond to the demand for highly qualified science and engineering personnel for academic and industrial research and teaching. This award will allow the investigator to pursue his research in the application of social network ideas to issues in organizational theory and political sociology. Much of his work focuses on the behavior of large corporations. He is interested in the factors that determine the types of government policies supported by businesses. Dr. Mizruchi's focus is on the ways in which factors such as market constraint exerted by one firm over another and the number of common institutional shareholders determine whether a pair of firms will support the same policy. He is also concerned with the methods corporations use to handle their capital needs. The focus is on whether representatives of financial institutions join the boards of nonfinancial corporations when the latter are in financial difficulty, as well as the types of alternatives that are available to capital- dependent firms and the factors that influence how capital is raised.
