Introductory Fellowship

Apply for the Intro Fellowship!

Are you interested in having a large social impact? Do you believe we should be more thoughtful about how we allocate the world’s resources to do good? Want to meet a community of Northwestern students dedicated to making the world a better place through their careers and lives? 

Sign up for Northwestern EA’s Introductory Fellowship! Our seven-week program explores the core ideas and concepts within the Effective Altruism movement. We hope the fellowship will provide you a framework for figuring out how you can make a difference in the world.

Our next round of the Intro Fellowship will run in Winter 2024.

The application link is below. Applications will be assessed on a rolling basis.

Feel free to send us any questions you have at effectivealtruism@u.northwestern.edu!
