U.S. journalists interested in environmental issues can apply for a nine-month fellowship in Boulder, Colorado.

The Center for Environmental Journalism at the University of Colorado is accepting applications for the Ted Scripps Fellowship.

The program brings professional journalists together with leading environmental specialists. Seminars, field trips, classes and in-depth research help participating journalists better understand key environmental issues.

Five fellows will each receive a US$80,000 stipend. The fellowship begins mid-August and continues into mid-May.

Applicants must have at least five years of journalism experience. Prior experience in covering the environment is not required.

The deadline is March 1.
