Starr Research Fellowship & Fieldhouse Research Fellowship
| The Starr Research Fellowship and the Fieldhouse Research Fellowship provide $15,000 for one year and can be used for tuition support and stipend. The fellowships are NOT renewable, but may be supplemented by funding from other sources. |
| The fellowships are made possible through a generous donation from the Starr Foundation, and IIT’s capital campaign match to honor Mr. Irv Fieldhouse, who until his death in 2005 had been an active member of the IIT-IITRI community for more than 40 years. To enhance Mr. Fieldhouse’s commitment in developing joint research projects, both fellowships target research that leads to cooperation between IIT and IIT Research Institute (IITRI), National Center for Food Safety and Technology (NCFST), Fermilab or Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) researchers. |
