Apply now for the 2024 SCIP Fellowship!
We're excited to announce that applications for the SciComm Identities Project (SCIP) Fellowship are now open for the second cohort! Apply for this groundbreaking program designed for pre-tenure faculty of color by September 18th, 2023.
WHAT: A year-long fellowship developed by University of Rhode Island’s Metcalf Institute, Michigan State University’s Knight Center for Environmental Journalism, and the URI Science & Story Lab to develop your voice and skills as a science communicator through a variety of mediums, including podcasting! SCIP is designed to test a novel science communication training curriculum based in intercultural communication and culturally relevant pedagogy.
WHO: Pre-tenure faculty from underrepresented ethnic and racial backgrounds at U.S. academic institutions, who study issues related to water and climate change. We encourage applications from varied disciplines in social and natural sciences and engineering.
WHERE: Fellows are required to participate in two in-person, weeklong workshops held in January and July, as well as six virtual trainings throughout the year. Lodging expenses for the in-person workshops are pre-paid. Travel and per diems will be reimbursed.
WHEN: Apply by September 18, 2023. The 2024 Fellowship runs January-December, 2024.
WHY: Access mentorship, peer community, resources, and the skills and confidence to communicate your work and its impact to the world. Level up in your storytelling - and your career, while learning how to craft a more compelling tenure narrative that communicates the value of science communication. Fellows receive a stipend of $5,000 for their commitment, split in two payments after the in-person workshops.
