Woodrow Wilson Higher Education Media Fellowship 2020

Applications are invited for the Woodrow Wilson Higher Education Media Fellowship 2020. The Fellowship aims to increase the number of journalists with the tools and networks to provide richer and more comprehensive coverage of post-secondary education, particularly career and technical education.

The six-month, non-residential program begins with an expense-paid post secondary career and technical education (CTE) symposium. Following the symposium, Fellows must complete a reporting project, such as a special report or series. Fellows will also attend a CTE Collaborative Convening hosted by the ECMC Foundation in the fall.

Deadline: May 22, 2020

The Fellowship program is sponsored by the ECMC Foundation and administered by the Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship Foundation.

Each ECMCF Fellow in the WW Higher Ed Media Fellowship program will be awarded $10,000—$5,000 as a stipend and $5,000 towards a reporting project.
