The McGraw Fellowship provides editorial and financial support to journalists who need the time and resources to produce a significant story that provides fresh insight into an important business or economic topic.
The aim of the McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism is to support in-depth, ambitious coverage of critical issues related to the global economy and business. In an age when many news organizations no longer have the resources to tackle complex, time-consuming stories, the Fellowships enable experienced journalists to do the deep reporting needed to produce a serious piece of investigative, analytic, or narrative journalism.
Worth:
- Grants of $5,000 a month for one to three months;
- The McGraw Center will provide editorial supervision during the Fellowship.
- The center will work with the Fellows to develop their projects during the reporting phase and will edit the completed stories.
- The center will also assist with placing the articles.
Eligibility
The McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism is open to anyone with at least five years professional experience in journalism. Freelance journalists, as well as reporters and editors currently working at a news organization, may apply.
How to Apply
Applicants should submit a well-focused story proposal of no more than three pages through the accompanying online form.
