ABOUT THE AWARD

The Harold and Arlene Schnitzer Prize in the Visual Arts is awarded to MIT students for excellence in a body of artistic work. All currently registered MIT students (graduate and undergraduate) are eligible to apply.

The Schnitzer Prize was established in 1996 through an endowment from Harold and Arlene Schnitzer of Portland, Oregon. Harold Schnitzer, a real estate investor, graduated from MIT in 1944 with a degree in metallurgy.

Up to four prizes are awarded by the Selection Committee, comprised of members of the Council for the Arts at MIT and members of the MIT visual arts community. Applications are evaluated based on the level of excellence displayed in the applicant’s body of work.
