The Quad Fellowship sponsors 100 American, Japanese, Australian, and Indian master's and doctoral students in STEM fields to study in the US.
The Quad Fellowship develops a network of science and technology experts committed to advancing innovation and collaboration in the private, public, and academic sectors, in their own nations and among Quad countries. The program is designed to build foundational understanding among Quad Scholars of one another’s societies and cultures through cohort-wide trips and robust programming with each country’s top scientists, technologists, and politicians.
Upon selection to the Quad Fellowship, Fellows will have access to a variety of virtual resources and programming designed to build connections within the cohort as they navigate the graduate admissions process. Beginning in August, Fellows take part in a residential experience followed by virtual programming opportunities designed to deepen their understanding of topics at the intersection of STEM and society. Upon graduation, Senior Fellows will have access to resources that support a lifelong network across cohorts and the Quad countries.
Fellows must be at least 18 years of age at the time of application, be citizens or legal permanent residents of Australia, India, Japan, or the United States, have a bachelor’s degree and a demonstrated record of superior academic achievement.
