Harvard University Fellowships in Journalism/Arts/Culture 2009
October 7, 2008
Harvard University Fellowships in Journalism/Arts/Culture 2009: The Nieman Foundation provides at least 12 mid-career journalists the opportunity to study at Harvard for an academic year; to step back from deadlines, renew their intellectual curiosity and enrich their understanding of the topics they cover.
Fellows take part in many journalism-oriented seminars, workshops and conferences, and benefit from the opportunity to spend a year with fellow journalists from around the world.
Fellows receive a stipend of $60,000 and additional housing, childcare and health insurance allowances.
Full-time staff and freelance journalists who work in all media, including print, broadcast, photography, film and the Web are invited to apply.
Applications for U.S. candidates are reviewed by a committee of Harvard faculty and news professionals, chaired by the Nieman curator. Finalists are invited to Cambridge in late April for interviews as the final step in selecting the new class of fellows.
Reynolds Community Journalism
and Arts & Culture Reporting Fellowships
As part of each U.S. class, we also select fellows for two special fellowships:
- Reynolds Fellowship in Community Journalism: for a U.S. citizen who works for a daily newspaper with less than 50,000 circulation.
- Arts & Culture Fellowship: reserved for a U.S. citizen who specializes in arts and culture reporting.
For more information about U.S. Fellowships, send an e-mail to nieman_applications@harvard.edu.
The deadline for application submission is Jan. 31.

Dear,
Let me introduce you myself first. My name is Birhanu Desalegn Mihretie who graduated from Jimma University Faculty of law, Ethiopia in LL.B (first degree in law) on 05 July 2007. Now I am working & giving the public service in the Ministry of Transport & Communications as a legal expert starting from December 11 2007 to date. My responsibilities among others is; drafting laws & contract documents, giving consultancy service to the ministry works, representing the ministry when it is sued & sues,& conducting various legal researches concerning the institution. To deliver & perform my responsibility fully to the rate that my country expected & to participate in the development endeavors of my country by making myself part of the solution I need further education. Hence it is my firm motive to study my LL.M (second degree in law)
Though I am interested & able to learn I can’t do this because of my incapacity to pay for the program as I am from Ethiopia which is one from the least developed countries. As a result of this I am forced to turn my face to the international scholarship programs both for my learning as well as living expenses. So I want yours Scholarship Administrator consideration to that effect by stretching its hands to the question I posed. . So, please if you can, inform me the requirements or eligibility criteria’s for such scholarship that I have requested, dates when to be opened for application, and any tasks that I am expected to fulfill to be eligible for it. If you can again I want you to give me any constructive advice as a brother personally on how to proceed to get international scholarship on LL.M (second degree in law) program even by giving the website that I can proceed for.
I have a great motive to up grade my self & to function well fully to the expected rate of my country.
Yours,
Applicant Birhanu Desalegn Mihretie
