NEW Undergraduate Fellows Programs Expand High Impact Learning Two new undergraduate Fellows Programs – the International Fellows Program and the Otto and Fran Walter Humanitarian Fellows Program – will begin in Fall 2022. The programs will expand high-impact learning opportunities for students and will complement the Fellows Programs currently offered in innovation and public service. Fellows Program participants gain a deep understanding of their chosen interest and the capacity to serve as drivers of positive change for the campus and community, as well as in their careers and beyond. Fellows Programs are open to students in any major through a competitive application process. Students enter their chosen program as a first-year cohort. During their time at Muskingum, they build their skills through academic exploration, co-curricular activities, professional networking and mentoring, field experiences, and leading campus and community projects. Each student completes a personalized high-impact experience such as an internship, special project, study away, service learning, or training conference, usually in their third year, with financial assistance provided through the Fellows Program. All Fellows Programs are established and supported through the generosity of donors to the University.
More than 100 students will be participating in Fellows Programs each year, once all programs have reached their full capacity of four cohorts. Each program accepts a new cohort of students from the incoming first-year class. Students apply to join a Fellows Program as part of the admission process.
