Details

Continuing Cornell students who have independently secured a summer internship related to peace studies and conflict resolution, can apply for the Freeman Fellowship to support work at a not-for-profit organization.

The Judith Reppy Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies will award one or more Freeman Fellowships to encourage Cornell undergraduates to pursue summer work related to peace studies and conflict resolution in an otherwise unpaid position with a not-for-profit organization.

Eligibility

Current Cornell freshmen, sophomores, and juniors, or continuing graduate students interested in funding for their summer internship can apply. Students seeking to fulfill the internship requirement of the Global Health Program are not eligible unless their projects explicitly engage peace and conflict studies.

Amount

A stipend of up to $4,000.

How to Apply
