Futures Initiative Graduate Fellowship (deadline: 4/10/22)

The Futures Initiative is seeking applications from Graduate Center doctoral students in any field for a 2022-2023 fellowship. Our Doctoral Fellows are at the heart of the Futures Initiative, and the work we do is designed to support our mission and the professional goals of every Fellow. Our past fellows have gone on to do meaningful, inspiring work, both in the academy and beyond. There is one new opening for CUNY Peer Leaders Facilitator.

This is a one-year position, and may possibly be renewed for one additional year (two additional years for students who have not received five-year GC fellowships). Doctoral students who have backgrounds underrepresented in the academy are especially encouraged to apply. Futures Initiative Fellowships offer a minimum total compensation of approximately $28,861, NYSHIP eligibility and in-state tuition remission for Fellows who are within their first 10 registered semesters of study. Fellows are required to work 450 hours for the academic year (225 hours per semester). This translates into 15 hours of work per week during each 15-week semester. Determinations of re-appointments are made on an annual basis depending on individual eligibility, GC needs, and available funding.
