Centennial Fellowship

Help a leading mathematics scholar advance their area of research. Make a gift

Your gift helps provide a mathematical research fellowship to recipients who show excellence in their area of study. Centennial Fellows hold their doctoral degrees for at least three years and not more than twelve years at the time off their awards. For more than forty years, the Centennial Fellowship has played a vital part in fostering outstanding mathematical research.
