The McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism at the CUNY Graduate School of Journalism for 2016-2017 in USA | The City University of New York (CUNY)

The Harold W. McGraw, Jr. Center for Business Journalism, an initiative of the City University of New York Graduate School of Journalism, began offering Fellowships to accomplished business journalists in the summer of 2014.

The McGraw Fellowship provides editorial and financial support to journalists who need the time and resources to produce a significant story or series that provides fresh insight into an important business or economic topic. They accept applications for in-depth text, video or audio pieces, and we encourage proposals that take advantage of more than one storytelling form to create a multimedia package.

Eligibility:

The McGraw Fellowship for Business Journalism is open to anyone with at least five years professional experience in journalism. Freelance journalists, as well as reporters and editors currently working at a news organization, may apply.

Fellowship

Typically, they’ll award grants of USD 5,000 a month for one to three months; in exceptional cases, they’ll consider longer grants based upon specific proposals.
