Apply for Chancellor’s Service Fellowship; Information Session on Wednesday, Dec. 15

The Chancellor’s Service Fellowship is a one-year interdisciplinary, mentored fellowship program focused on health-related community service and leadership development. 

The Chancellor’s Service Fellowship is a one-year interdisciplinary, mentored fellowship program focused on health-related community service and leadership development. 

The Fellowship program is designed to provide health services to underserved populations by facilitating opportunities for students to:

  • Serve – Fellows are expected to engage their chosen community with a well-designed and measurable project aiming to improve a specific facet of health or health awareness.  All fellows are expected to demonstrate depth of understanding of the community’s needs as well as a genuine desire to meet these needs.
  • Innovate – Fellows will initiate novel projects or programming efforts that fill currently unmet health-related niches (as opposed to seeking funding for currently active projects).  This innovation could occur through the creation of a new student project or through a significant expansion of scope of an already existing group.
  • Lead – Fellows should exhibit and develop their capacities of self-awareness, communication, teamwork, mentorship and motivation.  Students will have the opportunity to reflect on their leadership development and should seek leadership coaching throughout the project cycle.
  • Sustain – Fellows are expected to design projects that have the potential to be continued successfully beyond the funding period.  Projects should possess the potential to become self-sustaining and have plans for future student and community engagement.

The application deadline is Friday, Feb. 18, at 11:59 p.m.  

An information session will be held on Zoom at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, Dec. 15.

More information and the application can be found on the DUSON website.
