  • Salon. World Fellows host distinguished guests for discussions on key topics, expanding their knowledge and challenging their views
• Personal Development: World Fellows receive individual and group coaching and skills development training. World Fellows can audit many of the 2,000+ courses offered at Yale, work on individual or collaborative projects, and conduct independent research.
