The SEF Fellows for Innovation and Change program will select and announce its inaugural cohort in 2013. Through this effort, SEF seeks to establish a cross-section of talented and active professionals interested in developing cutting-edge research, policy solutions, and innovative practice to improve the educational outcomes of all students from pre-kindergarten to higher education. This three-year fellowship seeks to achieve three primary purposes:
- To promote innovative research, policy development, and programming aimed at improving educational quality, equity, degree attainment and educational outcomes for low-income and minority students;
- To strengthen the pipeline, network, and presence of talented and accomplished scholars, public policy professionals, and practitioners who will play important roles in achieving educational reform over the next decade; and
- To create synergistic opportunities between SEF's programmatic work and the work of fellows in ways that improve impact and advance common causes.
Applications are due on March 15, 2013.
This fellowship is designed to engage small diverse cohorts of professionals interested in advancing educational solutions on behalf of low-income and minority students in every sector and from all angles. Scholars, research scientists, policy analysts, institutional leaders, government officials, community organizers, and non- profit advocates are invited to apply. Ideal fellows are talented and accomplished professionals with promising trajectories and a keen sense of how they can contribute to improving the most critical educational challenges of our time.Deadline March 15, 2013
