FASPE Journalism challenges its Fellows to recognize their responsibility to act as ethical leaders in their careers in journalism and the media. Each year, FASPE Journalism awards fellowships to 14 to 16 journalism students and early-career journalists. Fellows spend two weeks in Berlin and Poland, where they visit key sites of Nazi history and participate in daily seminars led by specialized faculty. The program couples the power of place with academic rigor and many informal opportunities for creative exchange.

ELIGIBILITY:

FASPE Journalism applicants must fit into one of the following two categories: 1) have some journalistic experience (whether in a college newsroom or otherwise) and be enrolled in a graduate program of any kind and planning to work as a journalist; OR 2) be working as a journalist with less than 10 years of professional experience.

Preference will be given to candidates who have journalistic work that has been published or aired by a recognized news organization.

BENEFIT:

FASPE Fellowships are fully funded so that financial ability does not affect participation.
