Administrative Fellowship
Harvard University Administrative Fellows Program
Harvard University's Administrative Fellowship Program seeks to attract talented professionals, especially more ethnic minorities, to administrative careers in higher education. In addition, the University encourages applications from individuals from all backgrounds who are committed to addressing the underrepresentation of ethnic minorities in academic administration to administrative professional careers in higher education. To this end, the Administrative Fellowship Program offers a twelve-month management experience complemented by a professional development program.
Resident Fellows continue to work at their current position during the fellowship year, but they are able to take advantage of the various activities offered by the Program to aid their professional growth.
