Centennial Fellowships

Centennial Fellowships

A Research Fellowship Fund was established by the AMS in 1973 to provide one-year fellowships for research in mathematics.  In 1988 the Fellowship was renamed to honor the AMS Centennial. The number of fellowships granted each year depends on the contributions received; the Society supplements contributions as needed.  The primary selection criterion for the Centennial Fellowship is the excellence of the candidate's research.  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. Applications will be accepted from those currently holding a tenured, tenure track, post-doctoral, or comparable (at the discretion of the selection committee) position at an institution in North America.  The amount of the fellowship varies each year.  To make a contribution to the Centennial Fellowship Fund, see http:///development/centennialfund.html.   To apply for a Centennial Fellowship, see http:///employment/centflyer.html.
