The McGraw Fellowship provides
editorial and financial support to journalists who need the time and
resources to produce a significant story or series that provides fresh
insight into an important business or economic topic. We accept
applications for in-depth text, video or audio pieces, and we encourage
proposals that take advantage of more than one storytelling form to
create a multimedia package.
Typically, we’ll award grants of $5,000 a
month for one to three months; in exceptional cases, we’ll consider
longer grants based upon specific proposals. We’ll look for applicants
with a proven ability to report and execute a complex project in their
proposed medium; ideally, candidates will also have a strong background
or reporting expertise on the subject of their piece.
The McGraw Center provides editorial
supervision during the Fellowship. We work with the Fellows to develop
their projects during the reporting phase and frequently edit the
completed stories. We also assist with placing the articles. In some
cases, we partner with established print, radio or digital outlets; in
others we will publish them as e-books or through the CUNY J-School’s
book imprint.
