Leininger Faculty Fellow in Accounting and Information Systems by Virginia Tech President Timothy D. Sands and Executive Vice President and Provost Thanassis Rikakis.
The Wayne E. Leininger Fellowship in Accounting and Information Systems was established by friends of Wayne E. Leininger to honor the former faculty member and department head who served the Department of Accounting and Information Systems from 1971 until his retirement in 2003. The fellowship recognizes excellence in teaching and scholarship and recipients hold the fellowship for a period of three years.

A member of the Virginia Tech faculty since 1989, Brozovsky has published 25 peer reviewed journal articles, more than a dozen other articles, one book, and two book chapters. He has made more than 30 presentations, including several presentations on International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) at meetings sponsored by the American Accounting Association, the Port Authorities of North America, Illinois CPA Society, and the Georgia Society of CPAs.

Brozovsky's contributions in this area are significant.

He has been the primary advisor to more than 600 undergraduate junior and senior accounting and information systems majors as well as more than 60 master's degree students annually.
