Centennial Fellowship

Fellowships / Mathematical scientists/faculty

The AMS Centennial Research Fellowship Program makes awards annually to outstanding mathematicians to help further their careers in research.

The primary selection criterion for the Centennial Fellowship is the excellence of the candidate's research. Preference will be given to candidates who have not had extensive fellowship support in the past. Recipients may not hold the Centennial Fellowship concurrently with another research fellowship such as a Sloan or NSF Post-doctoral fellowship. A recipient of the fellowship shall have held his or her doctoral degree for at least three years and not more than twelve years at the inception of the award (that is, received between September 1, 2007 and September 1, 2016).

Applications should include a cogent plan indicating how the fellowship will be used. The plan should include travel to at least one other institution and should demonstrate that the fellowship will be used for more than reductions of teaching at the candidate's home institution.

The grant amount for fellowships awarded for 2019-2020 is US\$93,000, with an additional expense allowance of about US$9,300. Acceptance of the fellowship cannot be postponed.
