Summer Session Course- Applying Yourself: External Fellowships

During the first summer session, Dr. Miller will be offering a 1-credit course about writing competitive external fellowship applications. It will meet 4-5:30pm on Mondays and Thursdays from May 28 to June 25.

In this writing-based course students will learn to craft competitive applications for the prestigious external fellowships overseen by the NFP. While learning skills to produce this specific type of writing—including concision, cohesion, narrative arc, peer editing, and revising—by the end of the class, students will compose a completed fellowship application and be mock interviewed by classmates and outside guests. Recent JHU winners of external fellowships will visit the class to share their experiences with the application process and the grant itself.

Open to undergraduate students in all fields. For more information, please click here or email Dr. Miller. Registration opens on March 10.
