GSS Fellows Program Global Sustainability Scholars 2024

About Opportunity

The GSS Fellows program offers a 10-week paid immersive training and mentoring with a global sustainability organization. Fellows will gain professional work experience, receive professional mentorship and professional development training, and build an international professional network in sustainability science. We will accept 5 -10 fellows per year to join the GSS community, provide advanced professional development training, and build professional connections that foster opportunities for employment and/or graduate school opportunities.

Fellows will work with sustainability organizations such as Belmont Forum research projects or Earth Lab focused on a variety of sustainability challenges. Fellows are paid a stipend of $8,000 for their full participation in the program. Each fellowship may provide different opportunities and experiences, however, all Fellows will have a core curriculum and a GSS mentor. GSS Fellowships may meet graduate school requirements as professional internships, so be sure to make proper arrangements with the GSS program director prior to acceptance.

Every year GSS partners with different international organizations conducting and supporting research in sustainability solutions. In 2023 we have partnered with Belmont Forum-funded research focused on Ocean Sustainability.  GSS Fellows will be embedded with these projects for 10 weeks.
