Nonprofit Fellows Program

2014 Nonprofit Fellows
2014 Nonprofit Fellows

**This program is currently on hiatus**

The Nonprofit Fellows are a select group of students who earn a minor in Nonprofit Studies through a semester-long immersion experience.  The 20 - 25 Nonprofit Fellows are enrolled in the three courses and complete a 6-credit internship.  The program is offered by the School of Integrative Studies in partnership with the Schar School of Policy and Government.

The program emphasizes:

  • Personal attention from faculty.  Enjoy small sized classes taught by leaders in the academic and local nonprofit community.
  • Experiential learning. Students have a significant internship experience with a local nonprofit organization (with many options for virtual internships).
  • Integrated learning.  The faculty integrate learning across all three courses.  The experiential learning from the internship is also linked to course assignments and class discussions. 
  • A community of highly motivated learners.
