Professional Journalism Fellowships Program at Stanford University (1966–1984)

The John S. Knight Journalism Fellowships at Stanford is a paid 9-month journalism fellowship at Stanford University. It is one of 20 such programs available in the US for working journalists.[1] It is connected to the School of Humanities and Sciences.

The fellowship, which is awarded to up to 20 journalists each year, is open to professional journalists with a minimum of five years of experience. Acceptance is based on the applicants' ability to "identify and articulate a challenge in journalism that they want to work on addressing." According to the program, "We expect them to arrive in the program with more questions than answers and we seek people who are eager to experiment and to change course based on what they learn along the way."[2]
