How does the graduate research fellowship differ from traditional summer internships offered by various professional programs on campus?
Unlike other internships that often focus on direct service, the primary focus of the graduate research fellowship is to produce policy-relevant, applied research for nonprofit organizations serving low-income children, families, and neighborhoods, and the development of new scholars interested in advancing the human and community-development needs of New York City’s human service agencies through engaged scholarship. Fellows are expected to collaborate with local leaders in the joint design and execution of research that seeks to enhance the quality of public policy-making.
