21-22 Mavis Future Faculty Fellow (Spring 2022)

The Mavis Future Faculty Fellows Academy is made possible by the generous bequest of Frederic T. and Edith F. Mavis. Dr. Mavis received his BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Civil Engineering from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. He was a professor of Civil Engineering at several universities and was the Dean of Engineering at the University of Maryland from 1957-67. He died in 1983. This fellowship is for students working on their PhD in the College of Engineering who are planning to become an engineering professor.

MF3 Fellows are admitted on a competitive basis. Selected fellows for the 2022-2023 academic year will receive an award of $2,000 for participating in the program, which is paid in two installments and is dependent on fellows completing the required milestones/assignments.  

Eligibility - Senior doctoral students (who have passed their qualifying exam) in The Grainger College of Engineering who express an interest in academia are eligible to apply. Fellows must be enrolled as full-time students during the fall and spring term while in this program.

Materials should be submitted by Sunday, March 20, 2022 at 11:59 PM via Blackbaud. Users new to Blackbaud can view our instructions page.
