Applications are now open for the prestigious New York Times Fellowship for the 2025-2026 year, a highly regarded, yearlong work program designed to cultivate and mentor the next generation of journalists for The Times and the broader news industry. This immersive program is aimed at aspiring reporters, editors, and visual journalists, all of whom will have the opportunity to engage in both breaking news coverage and in-depth enterprise assignments that shape the public discourse. In an exciting development for 2025, the fellowship will introduce two new specialized tracks: the A.I. Initiatives fellowship, which will focus on the intersection of journalism and artificial intelligence, and the News Video fellowship, emphasizing the growing importance of video content in news reporting. Throughout the year, all fellows will work full time, immersing themselves in the dynamic environment of either the newsroom or the Opinion section, where they will be mentored by seasoned professionals and gain invaluable hands-on experience. This program not only aims to enhance the skills of its participants but also strives to push the boundaries of journalism, ensuring that the fellows are well-equipped to navigate the evolving landscape of news media. Through this initiative, The Times is committed to fostering a diverse and innovative cohort of journalists who will help shape the future of journalism in a rapidly changing world.
Since 2019, nearly 200 fellows have contributed to The Times’s mission to seek the truth and help people understand the world. Former fellows are working in media organizations around the globe, producing illuminating reporting and storytelling on some of the biggest news events of our time.
