Named for Julius Adams Stratton, President of MIT from 1959-1966, who
received his doctorate from ETH and maintained a strong connection to
Switzerland throughout his life. The Friends of Switzerland have named
a Laureate in his honor every year since 1966 who in turn names a
Fellow to receive the award money.<br>
<br>
In 2005 Catherine N. Stratton, wife of the late Julius Adams Stratton,
was named the Stratton Laureate for her tireless and enthusiastic
support of the work of the Friends of Switzerland. She welcomes MIT
applicants from all fields and all levels of study to apply for this
Fellowship. The winner will receive a $4,000 stipend plus travel to
Switzerland on Swiss Air for research or an internship during the
summer of 2007. In honor of her late husband's association,
preference will be given for projects associated with Eidgenossiche
Technische Hochschule (ETH), Zurich.<br>
