ECE Fellowship Initiative
A movement has started which could result in fellowship funding of every incoming Ph.D. student.
Some ECE faculty have proposed raising an endowment to financially support every new PhD student with a full fellowship. Strong support for this motion must be gained in order for it to prove successful. With enough voice behind this movement, this proposal could challenge competing outlets for financial support (such as building construction) whose impact on the reputation of Purdue ECE is indirect at best.
Do you feel that fellowship support for Ph.D. students is financially worthwhile?
Will this benefit Purdue's long-term vision?
