Scholarships: The John Morris Davies and William Olin Davies Memorial Fund in Physics was
established on March 3, 1995, by Mrs. Margaret A. Davies. Mrs. Davies established the fund
on her 91st birthday, in loving recognition of her late husband, John Morris Davies '22, '24;
and her decesased son, William Olin Davies '57. Both her husband and son shared a great love
of physics. The Davies Scholarship shall be awarded on the basis of merit and
financial need to an undergraduate student majoring in physics. The scholarship will be renewable
as long as the recipient meets the criteria established by the department
chair.
As of October 2001, several scholarship are still available.
If you are interested
in applying for this scholarship, talk to your physics instructor or
contact the Society of Physics Students faculty advisor,
Prof. Robert Mallik.
This endowment was created by a gift to The University of
Akron Foundation by Mr. Robert U. Blaser in 1993 in memory of his wife,
Naomi, and his daughter, Loretta. It is his intention the funds be
used to find a student majoring in Physics and participating in
the University Honors Program. Robert Blaser graduated from
the Physics Program in 1937 with two other students. The program's
significant growth has pleased him and encouraged him to offer support
for this purpose. In the event there are no Physics students in the
Honors Program, the funds are to be used in support of a worthy
undergraduate or graduate engineering or science student as
determined by the Physics Department and the Office of Financial Aid.
Interested students, please contact
Prof. Robert Mallik.
A fund established under the will of Fred F. Householder, former professor and head of the
Department of Physics, provides recognition and cash awards to
outstanding undergraduate and graduate physics students.
There are 10 separate award catagories: freshman, sophomore, junior,
senior, undergraduate research, MS academic, MS teaching, MS research,
PhD academic and PhD research.
Recipients are selected by faculty of the Department of Physics.
Contributions to the fund are welcome.
Established in 1982 in memory of Dr. Walter H. Heintz, associate professor of Physics, and
his wife, Margeret, this fund provides annual prizes and awards for outstanding student
performance, particularly in introductory physics courses, as determined by the faculty of
the Department of Physics.
