| The Aerospace Corporation established the Dr. Ruth Davis Fellowship for Mathematics and Physics in December 2000 in honor of Davis' service as chair of their Board of Trustees. Ruth Davis received her Ph.D. in mathematics in 1952 from the University of Maryland. The fund supports graduate students enrolled in the departments of mathematics or physics. The Math department awards this fellowship every other year. |

T.K. "Patrick" Sung (M.S. '69 and Ph.D. '72, chemical engineering) and his wife, Marguerite (B.S. '70, mathematics) established an endowed research fellowship in mathematics in 2007 to support excellent graduate students. Both born in China, the Sungs met at the University of Maryland as students and have gone on to work for Nu Skin Enterprises. Says Dr. Sung of the fellowship, “This is the place that gave us our start, so what better way to show our gratitude.”

Awarded to students upon the completion of their dissertation work. The James C. Alexander Prize for Graduate Research in Mathematics (Alexander Prize) is an award for outstanding Ph.D. dissertation in any field of mathematics, and is open to students in Math/STAT/AMSC who have defended their dissertation after September of the current academic school year. The Prize is endowed by a generous gift from our late colleague Jay Alexander's student Lawrence J. Baker, Ph.D. 1978, with matching funds from ExxonMobil Corporation. A nomination packet includes a copy of the dissertation and a 1-2 pages nomination letter written by the thesis advisor.
