- Yale World Fellows Program
-
Launched two years ago as part of Yale's broader efforts to become more internationally focused, this initiative seeks to bring to Yale each year 16 to 18 emerging international leaders from any field for a special 15-week leadership program. Fellows have come from business, government, media, the military and nongovernmental organizations. This year's Fellows include a former minister of foreign trade from Colombia, an Internet entrepreneur from Australia, a Ugandan member of parliament who is running for president, a refugee doctor from Iraq, the director of Transparency International Slovakia, and a top policy advisor to British Prime Minister Tony Blair. We seek accomplished men and women of great promise from outside the United States who have demonstrated their capacity to make a difference in their own countries and societies. We are looking for candidates who would benefit from a period of time at Yale to explore critical world issues, sharpen their leadership skills, and build relationships with other emerging leaders. The Fellows will participate in a global issues seminar, have access to the entire selection of courses available at Yale, and have the help of a faculty advisor to develop independent study opportunities.
