Mavis Scholarship

This program is made possible by a generous bequest of Frederic T. and Edith F. Mavis. Dr. Mavis received B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in civil engineering from the UniversityofIllinois. He was a professor of civil engineering at several universities and was dean of engineering at the University of Maryland from 1957 until 1967. He died in 1983.

The fund document directs that income from the fund shall be used for "scholarships for students working for their doctorates in the College of Engineering". It is the donors' desire that "those students planning to become engineering teachers be given preference".
