Ayfer Ozgur, professor of electrical engineering in the School of Engineering, was appointed the Michael Forman University Fellow in Undergraduate Education.

Mary Wootters, associate professor of computer science and of electrical engineering in the School of Engineering, was appointed the Mr. and Mrs. Frank W. Yeung University Fellow in Undergraduate Education.

The Bass University Fellows in Undergraduate Education Program was established in 2001 and named in honor of Anne T., MLA ’07, and Robert M. Bass, MBA ’74, who provided matching funds to launch it. Each appointment is named in honor of donors who made significant gifts to the Stanford endowment during the Campaign for Undergraduate Education that ended in 2005.

The Bass University Fellows begin their five-year terms this academic year. They are invited to join the Bass Council of Fellows, which meets twice a year and advises the vice provost for undergraduate education on various issues.

Once faculty rotate out of their individual fellow appointments, they become Bass University Fellows in Undergraduate Education in perpetuity.
