the 2023-24 Student FELLOWSHIP application IS NOW CLOSED. please CHECK BACK IN SPRING 2024 FOR our NEXT call for applications.
The Student Fellowship in Law and Political Economy is intended to foster research in the field of law and political economy. Fellows receive grant support of $2,500 per semester and are expected to make a significant commitment to writing a paper in law and political economy. In addition, fellows are required to attend the law and political economy workshop (whether they are registered for it or not) and present their work at an end-of-year fellows symposium. Eligible students include 2L, 3L, and SJD students at Harvard Law School, as well as PhD students at Harvard University who work on the role of law in the construction of economic and social inequality, on power in economic and social relations, or on the political economy of market societies.
