The Rural Fellowship program is a unique program designed to connect college students to rural Nebraska communities to provide hands-on working experience for students who will be helping communities accomplish community identified projects.
The student Fellows typically work on projects related to workforce and economic development, business development, early childhood education, community marketing and communication, entrepreneurship, mental health services, while learning about and experiencing inclusive community leadership.
The program is currently looking for students who may be interested in earning $5,000 through this experience. Undergraduate and graduate students of any major with a minimum of 2.5 GPA are welcome to apply. Learn more about the Rural Fellowship program.
Applications open on November 1, 2021. There will also be an informational webinar at 2 p.m. on Thursday, November 4, 2021 where additional information will be provided and questions will be answered.
