Gary
L. Rozier Student Experience Fellowships
Funded by a generous alumnus,
these fellowships assist undergraduate economics majors engaged in experiential
learning outside the classroom and similar activities that afford preparation
for professional pursuits, including attendance at professional or academic
conferences. Preference in selecting awardees will be given for
activities where financial obstacles would likely prevent a student from
participating. Amount of support is capped at $1,000 per student and will
be paid into the individual student’s account in the University’s Bursar
office.
To be eligible for the
fellowship, a student’s experiential learning activity or conference attendance
must take place between August 29, 2016 and August 28, 2017. This means
you could request support for an activity currently underway OR taking place
before the start of the fall 2017 semester.
Applications will be accepted
on a rolling basis until June 1, 2017 or until available funds are disbursed,
whichever occurs first. An announcement will be posted here on the blog when the
available funds are exhausted.
Please carefully read the
instructions included in the application form; each completed
application should include at least 3 pages.
Students selected for this
award are expected to write a letter of appreciation to Mr. Rozier which will be sent via
the BSOS Office of Alumni and Donor Relations.
