Thornton Tomasetti Foundation – Technical Literacy Fellowship

Deadline: 04/07/2018

The Thornton Tomasetti Foundation (TTF) was established in 2008 with a mission to fund projects, scholarships and fellowships in building engineering, design or technology. This new initiative offers up to $5,000 in funding for specific projects that further the technical literacy of the public at large especially regarding extreme loading events, wind performance, risk, reliability and the engineering processes that provide the foundation for all the structures in our built environment. Any projects that fulfill the goal of education will be considered.

Candidates and their projects must be nominated by a department chair. The department chair must submit one candidate qualifications (#4, below) via email to the Thornton Tomasetti Foundation ([email protected]) by April 7, 2018. The Thornton Tomasetti Foundation jury will meet in April and notify the participating department chairs by the second week of May.
