Raoul Wallenberg
Scholarships
The Taubman College of Architecture + Urban Planning awards the
Wallenberg Scholarships each year in honor of Raul Wallenberg, B.S.Arch.'35.
Wallenberg is credited with single-handedly rescuing over 100,000
Jews from Nazi persecution in Budapest, Hungary, during World War
II. The traveling scholarship, established by the Bernard L. Maas
Foundation in 1986, acts as a reminder of Wallenberg's courage and
humanitarianism and is aimed at reflecting his ideals. The award
gives undergraduate students the opportunity to broaden their study
of architecture to include work in distant locations.
