The Harold W. McGraw, Jr. Center for Business Journalism, a new initiative launched at CUNY, started offering fellowships to business journalists last summer. Since then, the program has granted a total of 10 fellowships to veteran journalists.
The fellowship provides editorial and financial support to journalists who need time and resources to produce a significant story or series that offers new insight into key business or economic topics. The fall deadline to apply is Nov. 15.
The program offers grants of $5,000 per month for one to three months, and editorial supervision is provided during the fellowship to develop the stories and help with placement.
The aim of the fellowship is to “support in-depth, ambitious coverage of critical issues related to the global economy and business.”
