LEXINGTON, Va., February 10, 2022—“The first thing I did was call my parents."

Eric Munro ’21 is one of only 23 U.S. candidates selected as a Gates Cambridge Scholar 2022. Established by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in 2000, the scholarship covers all costs for graduate study at the University of Cambridge. Munro will pursue a Ph.D. in engineering and research the development of next generation miniaturized spectrometers using novel nano materials.

An electrical and computer engineering major at VMI, Institute Honors cadet, and distinguished Air Force graduate, Munro was shocked and elated to receive the news.
