Applications call for Yale Maurice R. Greenberg World Fellows Program in the United States of America. The Maurice R. Greenberg World Fellows Program is a four-month, full-time residential program based out of Yale’s Jackson Institute for Global Affairs. Basically, the program runs annually from mid-August to mid-December. The Program also provides World Fellows the opportunity to expand their vision, learn from each other, and grow personally and professionally. World Fellows contribute to Yale’s intellectual life, give talks, and participate on panels, collaborate with peers, audit classes, and mentor students.
