Application Deadline for the 2008-2009 class is: February 1, 2008.
Twelve, mid-career U.S. journalists win Knight Fellowships at Stanford each year. The fellows get nine months of study, intellectual growth and professional change at one of the world's great universities, right in the middle of Silicon Valley - in classes, independent study and research and special forums with academic and journalism leaders. At the end of the year they return to the rapidly changing journalism landscape with a renewed sense of purpose, deeper knowledge and tools to tackle the challenges ahead.
Fellows receive a stipend of $60,000 plus tuition, and supplements for health insurance, books, housing and childcare. All benefits and activities of the program are open to spouses and partners of Fellows.
We're looking for:
- Reporters and editors and anchors
- Photographers and producers and news directors
- Editorial cartoonists and multimedia producers - and more
We want journalists who have already accomplished a lot and are ambitious to do more. Candidates must have seven years professional, full-time experience.
