Public Fellows

The Public Fellows program, ACLS’s newest initiative, places recent Ph.D.s in staff positions at partnering agencies in government and the non-profit sector for two year appointments. These appointments provide career development opportunities in administration, management, and public service and vary from year to year depending on participating agencies. This program aims to demonstrate that the capacities developed in the advanced study of the humanities have wide application, both within and beyond the academy. The generous support of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation makes this program possible. Read more about this program.
