Greater Milwaukee Foundation Mary Jo Read Fellowship for Graduate Students

The Mary Jo Read Geography Fund, with estimated assets of more than $1 million, will benefit students in the Department of Geography by providing scholarships, fellowships, and merit awards to students who demonstrate academic excellence in the field. Fellowships for Geography graduate students typically provide additional financial support to those also holding teaching, project, or research assistantships. Selection is based on the student’s academic and research record.

Students will be considered typically in spring each year between April and June. No additional or separate application is required. Awards given in spring are for the following school year so students graduating that same spring or summer are not eligible. E.G. applications reviewed in Spring 2023 are for Fall 2023; students graduating in May or August 2022 are not eligible.
