Applications are now open for the Oxford Reuters Institute Journalism Fellowship Programme 2024/2025 The Reuters Institute Journalist Fellowship Program is one of the world's leading programs for working, mid-career journalists to take time off from their day jobs to explore journalism in depth. Most of its journalist fellows are fully funded and also receive a stipend to cover living and travel expenses.
Through personal research, seminars, networking events, and discussions with your peers, you will deepen your understanding of journalism, the news industry, and your place within it. While at Oxford, you will work on a project that will have a direct impact on you, your career, your newsroom, and the media industry in general, bringing what you learn during your time at the fellowship to life. This is a program for active journalists and editors who will return to journalism after spending a few months at the Institute.
