IAPP Westin Fellowship Program 2025 (up to $55,000)

The IAPP Westin Fellowship Program was created in 2013 to encourage and enable research and scholarship in the field of privacy. As the IAPP has grown, so has their mission, which is to define, promote and improve the professions of privacy, AI governance and digital responsibility globally.

During the fellowship, most of the fellows’ time will be devoted to contributing substantively to the production of the research team, in collaboration with the publications team. The fellows will also present IAPP research, during in-person conferences or virtually. The fellows will contribute to the development and maintenance of resources in the IAPP Resource center and incorporate law student interns into research projects as appropriate. All work produced is expected to be of very high quality, appropriate for publication through professional or academic channels, as well as useful to practicing privacy professionals.

Benefits of IAPP Westin

• Compensation is $55,000 per year (depending on credentials) plus a generous employee benefits package.
