CEGA Non-Resident Fellowship
About the Non-Resident Fellowship
The CEGA Non-Resident Fellowship seeks to equip early career African social scientists with the skills needed to carry out rigorous evaluations of economic development programs. Selected researchers will have a chance to remotely audit courses at Berkeley or other universities, develop skills in impact evaluation, and have access to a personalized mentorship program to develop their research ideas. Each fellow will be paired with a faculty mentor affiliated with the Center for Effective Global Action (CEGA), a research center based at UC Berkeley. A list of CEGA faculty affiliates is available online here. CEGA staff and PhD students will provide additional mentorship during the fellowship.
Who is eligible: To be eligible, researchers must be East or West African nationals (see full list under eligibility in RFA) who hold a staff or student position at a research institution, university, or other organization headquartered in Africa and have completed a Master’s degree within the last 10 years in economics, statistics, epidemiology/public health, or another social science discipline.
To Apply: Please carefully review the full-length RFA before preparing your submission package. Submit your application here by 5:00 PM GMT on June 21, 2021 at 5:00 PM GMT.
