Deadline: 15th Jan 2023 | Global Sustainability Scholars – Fellows Program |
About us
A 10-week paid immersive training program and mentoring with a global sustainability organization are provided by the GSS Fellows program. In addition to receiving professional development training and coaching, fellows will build an international professional network in sustainability science and obtain professional job experience. Each year, we will welcome ten fellows into the GSS community, offer them advanced training in professional development, and help them form professional networks that may lead to job or graduate school options.
Fellows will collaborate with sustainability organizations like Earth Lab, which focuses on a range of sustainability concerns, or Belmont Forum research projects. A stipend of $8,000 is given to fellows in exchange for their complete program participation. While possibilities and experiences may vary throughout fellowships, all Fellows will have access to a core curriculum and a GSS mentor. Before accepting a GSS fellowship, make sure you have all the necessary arrangements with the program director. GSS fellowships can fulfill graduate school requirements just as professional internships.
Eligibility
- Applicants must be U.S. citizens who have graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in the past four years and who are currently enrolled and in good academic standing in a graduate program from an accredited college. If you are not currently enrolled but have been accepted to a graduate program for Fall 2024, please be sure to submit your future enrollment verification with your transcripts.

- GSS also welcomes LGBTQIA+ students; students who have experienced, and worked to overcome educational or economic disadvantages and/or have personal or family circumstances that may complicate their continued progress in research careers.
