Applications for the 2013-14 James M. Banovetz Illinois Local Government
Fellowship are now available. Students who are interested should
contact me and submit the attached application no later than April 11th,
2014. Please see below for the information on this fellowship and
eligibility requirements.
ILCMA is pleased to announce that applications are now being accepted
for the ILCMA Banovetz Local Government Fellowship. Established by the
Illinois City/County Management Association (ILCMA) to encourage the
best public administration students to pursue a career in local
government management, the fellowship will provide $2,000 in support
money for the academic year. The student recipient(s) of the Banovetz
Illinois Local Government Fellow will be introduced to the ILCMA
membership at its annual meeting at Eagle Ridge in Galena on June 11-
13, 2014. The winner(s) will be a guest at the conference with all
expenses paid including registration and hotel.
The fellowship is named in honor of Professor Emeritus James M.
Banovetz, whose 35-year academic career was devoted to the professional
education of students for careers in local government management, and to
the enhancement of graduate education in public administration
throughout Illinois. The program seeks to continue Professor Banovetz’s
efforts by encouraging students at all Illinois colleges and
universities to consider local government management as a desirable
career option. The membership of ILCMA has made the fellowship a
continuing program, providing one or more students each year with a
fellowship having a cash value that approximates the equivalent of a
one-year tuition grant.
To qualify for the fellowship, a student must have successfully
completed at least one half the coursework required for a master’s
degree program in public administration or political science at a
university in Illinois. Further, the recipient must make a personal
commitment to pursue a professional career in local government
management.
If you meet the criteria, please consider submitting your material for
this $2000 fellowship by April 11th to me (shar@uic.edu).
After April 11th, we will review the applications and provide a letter
of recommendation which is needed for the final deadline of April 18th. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Sharon
