"I support Michigan Tech because I believe in the critical importance of higher education, not only for the state and the nation, but most importantly for our graduates. The Fourth Industrial Revolution changes everything, and Michigan Tech is perfectly positioned to prepare our students for these changes. I support fellowships in data science because of the role that sensing, networking, big data, artificial intelligence and human/machine interfacing has in the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Supporting graduate and research activities is critical to keeping Michigan Tech agile and at the cutting edge of this revolution."
- Dave House
"The fellowship has made an incredible difference in my life. As the first person in my family to go to college, it is an amazing opportunity to be able to pursue my graduate studies fully funded." - Bonnie Henderson, the Fall 2019 David House Fellowship recipient.
