The Joan Shorenstein Center offers a one-semester fellowship at Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government.

Fellows are domestic or international journalists, scholars, and/or policymakers who are interested in the influence of the press on public policy and politics.
The fellowship offers a unique opportunity for scholars and practitioners to share their knowledge and expertise in a collegial and intellectually stimulating environment. Fellows participate in weekly seminars with scholars, a luncheon speakers series with invited journalists or policymakers, and in other organized programs of the Shorenstein Center and Harvard University. Fellows may audit courses for no credit. The Fellowship Program is not a degree or journalism training program.

The purpose of the Fellows Program is to advance existing research in press/politics and to provide an opportunity for distinguished experts to reflect on their discipline. Our goal is to foster a collegial and intellectual environment that will enrich and complement one’s knowledge of the field. The primary focus for a fellow in residence is a paper (approximately
25 pages in length) on a topic examining and analyzing the influence of the press on politics and public policy in the domestic or international arena.
