A Three-Part Experience
Sorensen Fellowship 2012:
- Spring 2012: Take a course of your choosing as academic preparation for your internship.
- Summer 2012: Intern in the organization of your choice, anywhere in the world. Tackle issues of international importance like coexistence, human rights, international law, hunger relief, gender equality, development, education, global health, AIDS prevention, refugee assistance, or something we haven't thought of!
- Fall 2012: Take a course with the other Fellows to put the internship experience in perspective.
Award
Sorensen Fellows receive a $4000 stipend ($3500 if internship is in the U.S.) intended to cover travel and modest living expenses for a summer internship.
Eligibility
Sorensen Fellows must be Brandeis sophomores or juniors in the fall of 2011. Students from any major are eligible. Fellows must be on campus in Spring 2012 and Fall 2012. We are pleased to consider applications from those who have previously applied.
