The Dean’s Doctoral Fellowships will recognize and cultivate top engineering talent, and awards will be granted to individual scholars pursuing Ph.D. research in electrical and computer engineering.

The priority deadline for applications is Dec. 15, 2019. Applicants who enter by this date will be considered automatically. The fellowship program has been launched in celebration of Purdue Engineering’s 120^th anniversary, which will be celebrated throughout 2020.

With more than 100 faculty members, more than 1,600 undergraduates, and nearly 700 graduate students, the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Purdue is one of the largest in the nation. The ECE faculty includes 42 IEEE Fellows, six National Academy of Engineering (NAE) members, an NAE Gordon Prize winner, and a former president of IEEE.

Benefits of the fellowship include an annual compensation of $34,000, tuition, and most fees for up to five years, plus up to $2,000 per year in additional funds to support research activities.

These competitive Dean’s Doctoral Fellowships will be awarded to select candidates who have either completed a bachelor’s or master’s degree by the application deadline or are in the final year of their program in electrical and/or computer engineering, or a related field of engineering.
