Every year the Wilson College of Textiles nominates a group of talented doctoral candidates as Provost\u2019s Fellowship recipients. This prestigious fellowship, which comes in the form of a one-year stipend, supports students in bringing their unique talents to the Wilson College of Textiles. Meet the newest class of fellows starting and continuing their time at the Wilson College:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Tehran at Amirkabir University of Technology and Iran-Qazvin Kar Qazvin University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Textile Chemistry and Fiber Science Engineering<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have been involved with textiles and polymer science for over 13 years and I\u2019m always trying to boost my knowledge in this regard. I am really interested in open-ended projects and doing research, and I would like to be a faculty member in the future or work as a researcher in R&D at a private company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I really enjoy studying and researching in this field to boost my knowledge and help people and the environment through environment-friendly research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Photodegradation of polypropylene and the effects of fiber orientation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Illinois State University<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Theater design and production with an emphasis on costume and a minor in apparel design and consumer science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After working in the ready-to-wear and custom apparel industry and seeing issues with current production methods, I wanted to research sustainable solutions. So I entered the M.S. Textiles program in the fall of 2020, and the Ph.D. program has presented the opportunity to go more in-depth into my research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Receiving this scholarship allowed me to continue pursuing my research. It is supportive and encouraging, and I am grateful for the acknowledgement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Weaving<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Donghua University in China and the Wilson College of Textiles<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Textile Engineering (Textiles design), Master of Textiles<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think doing research about supply chain optimization with a sustainability focus is fun and meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will help take some of the stress out of my life so I can concentrate more on my research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Supply chain management<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Brazil at the Federal University of Santa Catarina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Textile Engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because Wilson College of Textiles is a well-established and widely-recognized textiles institute, it’s the number one reference in textiles in the world with a huge range of research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I chose my degree because fabrics fascinate me. There are so many possibilities to invent new things, and different applications. Also because of the importance of the textile industry in the economic and mainly environmental side. I feel motivated to contribute mainly to improve the sustainable side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Modification and bioproduction of natural dyes for waterless dyeing applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I earned my bachelor degree from Zhejiang Sci-Tech University in China and am currently in a master\u2019s program at NC State University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A B.E. in fashion design and engineering, and an M.S. in textile engineering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because the Wilson College is a leader in the textile community and a great place to receive well-rounded knowledge in this field, based on the experience I had in my master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I have grown to like exploring various facets of the textile and apparel industry. I found it interesting how researchers develop and play with different materials and structures to achieve diverse functions for real-life applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
