Past Princeton MMRA Fellows

Princeton Mellon Mays Residential Associates Program

In 2015, Princeton University expanded its commitment to diversity and inclusion in higher education through the creation of the Princeton Mellon Mays Residential Associates Program (MMRA), which sponsored 3-5 associate fellows each year. A collaboration between the Office of the Dean of the College and the Provost’s Office, the MMRA fellowship helped to promote equitable access to research opportunities, graduate study, and academic careers. MMRA fellows participated fully in the Princeton Mellon Mays academic and social community. While at Princeton, MMRA fellows benefited from the same financial resources, professional development opportunities, and mentorship experiences as the MMUF fellows.
