Auvil Fellow Profiles

WSU Auvil Fellow Recipients


The Auvil Fellows Program is funded by a gift from the estate of alumnus Grady and Lille Auvil.  Grady Auvil believed in the importance of both education and research.  These WSU awards have supported both start-up as well as experienced researchers since 2007. 

Students involved in undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative activity with a mentoring faculty member are eligible for the Auvil Fellows awards.  Applications are usually sought for fall, spring, and summer semesters, and the award is administered through WSU Undergraduate Research.  Most awards are for $1,000 per semester.
