Fellowships
With two full-time fellowships advisors, the Office of Global Programs is committed to helping Columbia students apply for internal, national, and international fellowships. We educate students, faculty, and staff about scholarship and research opportunities and assist students in determining the best fellowships for their intellectual, professional, and personal goals. Our services help students:
- identify appropriate fellowships given their unique interests,
- prepare and submit application materials that represent them best,
- enhance their interviewing skills, and
- explore other avenues to pursue their goals.
With personalized training, our students improve their critical thinking, analytical writing, and oral presentation skills, all of which enable them to submit the most compelling applications.
To discuss fellowship opportunities, visit the Office of Global Programs (606 Kent) any Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday between 2:00 and 4:00 pm for a drop-in conversation, or contact Paul Bohlmann, Assistant Dean of Fellowship Programs, or Therese Workman, Fellowship Advisor and Program Coordinator.

The Columbia Global Scholars Program (GSP) offers highly motivated students of diverse disciplines the opportunity to investigate issues from a global perspective. Based at Columbia Global Centers | Europe in Paris (CGC|E), the program encourages students to delve into another society and culture as they pursue their own projects, test their own goals against other peoples’ educational and intellectual systems, and develop a range of research, language, and networking skills to help them in this innovative intellectual endeavor. The GSP curriculum is designed to enable students to conduct individual research projects during the spring and summer semesters of their junior year. The program, the first of its kind at Columbia, takes place during the spring and summer semesters. The GSP for academic year 2013 is now recruiting students.
