The Miller Fellowship recognizes the top student each quarter in
course performance. It is awarded three times each year to a student selected
on grade performance and research productivity in the preceding quarter.
The Miller Fellowship was created in 1997 as a result of a generous donation
from alumnus Bill Cobb who expressed his desire to remember the contributions
of Frank Miller to the academic careers of 25 years of petroleum engineering
graduates. Frank G. Miller was chairman of the department from 1953 until
his retirement in 1976. Frank lived in Los Altos Hills until his death
in December 1999, and often came to Stanford to make the presentation of
the Fellowship.
