The University of Michigan seeks application to its Knight-Wallace Journalism Fellowship.

Mid-career journalists can apply for a fellowship at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.
Applicants must have at least five years of professional experience. Print, broadcast and online journalists are eligible to apply.
Fellows receive a US$85,000 stipend for living expenses, plus US$5,000 for relocation expenses.
The deadline for international applicants is December 1, 2024. U.S. applicants have until February. 1, 2025 to apply. Interested applicants can apply here.
