ANDERSON FELLOWSHIPS

Letter from Carl A. Anderson on July 7, 1978 (fund established April 7, 1982)

It is my intension that this fund be used to promote the development of more effective methods of inquiry in economics and the dissemination of information resulting from such studies.  To this end, the fund establishes the Carl Arvid Anderson Prize Fellowship in Economics to be awarded annually to one or more pre-doctoral or post-doctoral students.

The pre-doctoral recipients will be selected by a committee of the Cowles professors in the Department of Economics with the approval of the Dean of the Graduate School.  The fellowship may also be awarded to a post-doctoral student upon the recommendation of the Cowles professors with the approval of the Chairman of the Department of Economics and the Provost of the University.
