Journalists who want to collaborate with others to pursue ideas for addressing the biggest challenges facing journalism can apply for a nine-month fellowship. 

Each year, the John S. Knight Journalism Fellowships selects up to 20 fellows to spend an academic year at Stanford University. During their fellowship, they have access to some of the world’s most innovative thinkers and organizations, from technology giants to hot new startups to Stanford’s 100-plus special institutes and centers.

Fellows receive a stipend of US$125,000. The cost of Stanford tuition and Stanford health care are also covered. 

Ideally, candidates will have at least five years of experience. 

The deadline for international applicants is Dec. 4 and Jan. 15, 2025 for U.S. applicants.
