Outstanding Lamar University undergraduates have less than a month to apply for the university’s most prestigious student awards, the David J. Beck Fellowships. Applications for this new fellowship will be accepted through Oct. 1. The inaugural Beck Fellow will be named in November.
Beck Fellows will receive full academic scholarships to Lamar University for one year covering all tuition, fees, books and on-campus room and board. Additionally, fellows will receive up to $10,000 for summer projects, which may include research, travel, an internship or some other pursuit to help them achieve their personal and professional goals.
The David J. Beck Fellowships were made possible by a $1 million gift from distinguished alumnus David J. Beck. A former regent of the Lamar University System, Beck is a founding partner in a premier Houston law firm, Beck Redden & Secrest. A Port Arthur native, he credits Lamar University with giving him the opportunity to attend college and gain a foundation for future success.
Application packets are available in the offices of the senior associate provost (Plummer 104), Honors Program (Honors Building) or each college dean. For more information, visit lamar.edu/beckfellowships or call (409) 880-8400.
