Description
Journalism fellowships at Stanford started in
1966 with a powerful idea: giving reporters and editors free run of the
classrooms and libraries of a great university, which would pay off in superb
journalism.
Each year, the John S. Knight Journalism Fellowships selects 20
fellows to spend an academic year at Stanford University. During
their fellowship, they have access to some of the world’s most innovative
thinkers and organizations, from technology giants to hot new startups to
Stanford’s 100-plus special institutes and centers.
They select journalists with great ideas they will pursue
while in our program and beyond. Recent fellows have launched journalism
startups, created cross-border investigative reporting partnerships, crafted
tools to enhance reporting on immigrant communities, to cite a few examples.
Others have been sought out to lead innovation in established news
organizations.
Their fellows come from all over the world and from all
types of journalism, including daily newspapers, radio and television,
non-profit news startups, blogs and ethnic media.
Eligibility
They are seeking a pool of applicants who are diverse in all
ways: race, ethnicity, gender, media background, region of the country, regions
of the world, perspectives and life experiences.
Ideally, US candidates should have at least seven years
of experience, and international candidates should have at least five years of
experience.
Fellowship
Fellows receive a stipend of USD 65,000 as well as
supplements for housing, childcare, health insurance and moving expenses.
Tuition costs at Stanford are also covered.
How to apply?
The deadline for application is 1 December 2015.
Applicants must fill out the application.
