University of Oxford Reuters Institute Journalist Fellowship Program 2022/2023

Deadline: 14th February, 2022

Summary: Applications are open for the University of Oxford Reuters Institute Journalist Fellowship Program 2022/2023. The Fellowship at the Reuters Institute is one of the world’s leading schemes for practising, mid-career journalists to take some time out from their day jobs to explore journalism in depth.

Details: Through personal research, seminars, networking events and discussions with your peers, you will further your understanding of journalism, the news industry and your place in it. While you are in Oxford, you will work on a project that will be of direct impact to you, your career, your newsroom and the wider media industry, bringing in what you learn during your time in the fellowship. This is a program for working journalists and editors who will return to journalism after spending a few months at Oxford.

Program Details:

They accept around 30 Journalist Fellows from around the world each year, each of whom bring fascinating insights and a wealth of experience to the institute. Here’s what is unique about the program:

  • You will be embedded in a cutting-edge institution that is shaping key media debates. The Reuters Institute produces factsheets and reports on the main challenges of the industry.
  • You will be part of an institution with a global outlook. The Journalist Fellows come from all over the world. They share ideas and experiences of working in different countries and different mediums.
  • You will be part of one of the world’s greatest universities. Oxford offers unrivalled study facilities, leading research centres, extensive learning support and a global reputation.
  • You will be just one hour from London by train, providing convenient access to some of the world’s leading news publishers like The Guardian, the Financial Times and the BBC.

Benefits:

  • Most journalists on the program are fully funded. Successful applicants get their fees covered and receive a monthly stipend of £2,000, which will be enough to cover the cost of accommodation, food, and general living expenses. The fellowship will also cover the cost of travel to and from the UK and any visa costs.
  • Additionally, some Journalist Fellows are employees of sponsoring organisations which run their own application process and selection criteria. Contact the organisers if you want more information on joining the fellowship with these or any other sources of funding.

Eligibility:

  • Open to journalists from all over the world, including Europe, Africa, the Asia-Pacific region, North America, and Latin America.
  • Applicant must have a minimum of five years’ journalistic experience, or in rare cases demonstrate the equivalent level of expertise.
  • You will be able to understand and join in discussions in English.

Application:

Applications for the 2022/2023 fellowship cohorts (starting in October 2022, January 2023 and April 2023) are now open. The final deadline for applications is February 14, 2022 (23:59 UK time).
