Student Fellowships

The Petrie-Flom Center Student Fellowship is a competitive one-year program designed to support Harvard graduate students interested in pursuing independent scholarly projects related to health law policy, biotechnology, and bioethics. With intensive mentorship from Petrie-Flom Center affiliates, student fellows are expected to produce a piece of publishable scholarship by the end of the academic year, at which point they may choose to be be awarded a modest stipend and/or academic credit (based on their school’s policies). Student fellows blog regularly at Bill of Health, the Center’s blog, where their work receives substantial public exposure; participate in and organize Center events; and enroll in the Health Law, Policy, Bioethics, and Biotechnology Workshop, which provides the opportunity to interact with leading scholars in the field.

The application cycle for Student Fellows begins in March and notifications are made by the end of August.

Full application information and deadlines will be posted in Current Opportunities when applicable.
