Rosalind Beckwith ’07

罗莎琳德·贝克维斯获得了丘吉尔奖学金, which offers American students of exceptional ability and outstanding achievement the opportunity to pursue graduate studies in engineering, mathematics or the sciences at Churchill College at the University of Cambridge.

The Churchill Scholarship provides support for one year of study and research at the University of Cambridge and covers all university and college fees, 在丘吉尔学院的生活津贴是10英镑,000-£12,000, 往返美国的补助金,最高可达1美元,000, 还有一笔高达2美元的特别研究经费,000. The scholarship is currently worth between $44,000 and $50,000, depending on the student’s program. 经过当地校园的审查, the applications for 丘吉尔奖学金 are vetted and ranked by former Churchill Scholars, 他们中的大多数是学术科学家.

From Tempe, Ariz., Beckwith majored in engineering and has a special interest in fluid dynamics. 她在波音公司做过实习和研究项目, 劳伦斯利弗莫尔国家实验室和霍尼韦尔发动机公司. President of Tau Beta Bi at HMC and a winner of a scholarship from the Department of Homeland Security, she plays French horn, was a member of the varsity swim team and has completed two triathlons.

贝克威斯是玛丽·卡德纳斯推荐的, assistant professor of engineering and director of the Engineering Clinic Program. 在给丘吉尔基金会的信中,她写道:

“Harvey Mudd College is one of the few liberal arts colleges of engineering, and Rosalind Beckwith is our best example of what we wish to produce. 她不仅是我教过的最聪明的学生之一, 在学术成就和技术技能方面, 但她也是我教过的最全面的学生. This can be seen in her deep interest in application of her work to human problems, 以及她对流体力学之美的欣赏.”
