The Nieman Foundation is now accepting applications for fellows in the class of 2026. Approximately two dozen journalists from around the world will be selected to spend the 2025-2026 academic year at Harvard University, where they will audit classes with some of the university’s greatest thinkers, participate in Nieman programming and collaborate with peers. During their time at Harvard, Nieman Fellows attend seminars, shop talks and master classes designed to strengthen their professional skills and leadership capabilities. With the knowledge they gain on campus and the relationships they build, fellows often return to work as journalism entrepreneurs, industry innovators and top managers in their newsrooms.
If you’re ready to challenge yourself, we want to hear from you.
Application deadline for U.S. journalists: Jan. 31, 2025
