International Public Service Fellowship

The International Public Service Fellowship is a collaboration between the Haas Center and the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI). Interested students propose the type of placement that they envision and what they hope to contribute and gain from the experience. The selected fellow then works with Haas and FSI advisors to establish a viable placement and identify a faculty mentor for the 12-month opportunity. The fellow is awarded a $35,000 stipend designed to cover all travel, living, and health insurance related expenses. Read this campus article on past fellows

New! 2012–13 International Fellowship Program
Omidyar Network Postgraduate Fellowships@Stanford


Omidyar Network has funded the Haas Center to provide two additional international fellowships for 2012-13 (for a total of three international fellowships this year). For the Omidyar Network Postgraduate Fellows@Stanford, we seek applicants with a proven interest in international development and a particular focus on exploring government transparency, consumer internet and mobile, microfinance, and entrepreneurship as part of the service fellowship experience. Visit Omidyar Network portfolio partners page for possible placements you might want to highlight in your application given your background and career interests. Please do not contact any organizations directly. Not all partners will be available for a fellowship placement and all placements will be made through a facilitated process spring quarter after the fellowships are awarded.

To apply for any of the three international fellowships, please use the International Public Service Fellowship application. Omidyar Network Postgraduate Fellows@Stanford receive the same level of compensation as the other International Public Service Fellow and follow the same program guidelines, expectations and responsibilities.

Please note that Haas Center staff do not necessarily have direct experience with, nor do we professionally endorse, partner organizations.

Online applications will be due February 2, 2012 at 11:59 pm.
