The Jackson Institute for Global Affairs at the University of Yale is organizing a four-month, full-time Maurice R. Greenberg World Fellows Programme.
The Programme gives World Fellows the chance to broaden their perspectives, learn from one another, and advance personally and professionally each year from mid-August to mid-December.
World Fellows can contribute to Yale’s intellectual life by giving presentations and participating in panels, collaborating with peers, auditing classes, and mentoring students.
The following are the Programme’s main components:
Program structure
Weekly Seminar:
World Fellows discuss their ideas for making the world a better place, their professional activities, and how they contribute to the formation of a “good society.”
The World Fellows also welcome notable speakers for talks on important themes, which broadens their knowledge and challenges their perspectives.
Personal development:
World Fellows receive individual and group coaching and skills development training. World Fellows can audit many of the 2,000+ courses offered at Yale, work on individual or collaborative projects, and conduct independent research.
Hosting event:
World Fellows give talks and participate on panels across Yale, sharing their knowledge and expertise with students and faculty.
Individual and group coaching, as well as skill development training, are provided to World Fellows. Many of Yale’s 2,000+ courses are open to World Fellows, who can also engage in individual or collaborative projects and do independent research.
Mentoring students:
World Fellows mentor undergraduate and graduate students who apply to be their liaisons. Student liaisons assist World Fellows in organizing events and ensuring that they are completely involved in Yale society.
Group travel:
Fellows will be able to explore the region on their own and during group visits to New York City and Washington, DC, as well as a retreat in the lovely Berkshire Mountains.
