The intent of this project is to compile information about the career paths of Putnam Fellows (top five finisher in the William Lowell Putnam Competition--http://www.maa.org/Awards/putnam.html) and to provide a searchable data base for information about Putnam Fellows. The site is searchable by first and last names, years, institutions of Putnam Fellows, and institutions of PhDs of Putnam fellows. Searching for Princeton University under "School as Putnam Fellow" will return all Putnam Fellows from Princeton. Searching for Princeton University under "University of PhD" will return all Putnam Fellows with a PhD from Princeton (as far as I have been able to determine). For a listing of Putnam Fellows by year enter % in the box The Year of Putnam Exam. For a listing of Putnams Fellows sorted by the PhD granting institutions in alphabetical order use % in the box University of PhD.

Please send me any information you have about a Putnam Fellow or any comments or suggestions about the site. Thank you.

Search Tips

Except for MIT, NYU, UCLA and Caltech, the institution's full name is used. The wildcard symbol % following a string of characters looks for names that begin with that string. Thus, Wash% yields Washington University, St. Louis. The wildcard symbol % at the beginning of a string of characters looks for names that end with that string. Thus, %Berkeley yields all entires corresponding to University of California at Berkeley.
