Lampert Institute Summer Fellowship Program

ONFS and The Lampert Institute invite first- and second-year students from all disciplines to apply for the Lampert Summer Fellowship. This program will support up to six students annually to pursue opportunities that cultivate early, inquiry-driven engagement with major global questions. Centered on the Lampert Institute’s two core themes; the changing world order and science, technology, and public policy, these self-designed experiences should support students in exploring real-world issues through research, internships, creative projects, service work, and more. Participants are encouraged to approach their chosen topic with humility and curiosity, focusing not on finding predetermined answers but on deepening their understanding of the question, its broader contexts, and the perspectives of others.
