The University of Illinois' TechnipFMC Fellowships support masters- and doctoral-level students who are conducting research in areas related to the work of TechnipFMC. Targeted areas are Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Systems/Analytics, Electrical Engineering, Robotics/Mechatronics, and related areas of study. Preference will be given to students who have research interests in the areas of upstream oil and gas. Previous TechnipFMC awardees are welcome to reapply.

TechnipFMC (formally known as "FMC") is a leading global provider of technology solutions for the energy industry and has approximately 21,000 employees in 39 countries. TechnipFMC designs, manufactures and services technologically sophisticated systems and products such as subsea production and processing systems, surface wellhead systems, high pressure fluid control equipment, measurement solutions, and marine loading systems for the oil and gas industry.

The spirit of the TechnipFMC Fellowship is to support the education of students at the University of Illinois who would be viable candidates for employment at TechnipFMC. The TechnipFMC Educational Fund was established in 1963 by a donation to the University of Illinois Foundation of 15,000 shares of stock in the Link-Belt Company (later acquired by the FMC Corporation) by Bert A. Gayman, an Illinois alumnus.

Eligibility: Fellowships offer one year of support.  Fellows in doctoral programs will receive a stipend of $25,000, and fellows in master's programs will receive $15,000.  Fellows receive full waivers of tuition, service fee, health service fee, AFMFA fee, and library fee/ IT.  Basic dental and vision insurance along with partial payment of the graduate student health insurance fee are also included.  Note, however, that students in approved cost-recovery or self-supporting programs are not eligible to receive tuition or fee waivers.
