Fellows in Germany

AJC’s Goldman Fellowship Program is designed to develop future leaders in the areas of international and domestic politics, diplomacy, public relations, and management. This competitive Fellowship gives undergraduate and graduate students the unique opportunity to work in offices domestically and throughout the world – from New York City to Melbourne, Australia.

Fellows work closely with supervisors in a mentor relationship with senior AJC personnel to learn about strategy, advocacy, and the development and implementation of programming. Fellows may also spend part of their time developing an independent project with the AJC office to which they are assigned.
Research and policy work span the range of AJC’s interests – from international affairs and diplomacy to interethnic relations and non-profit management. Applicants are asked to select their preferred field(s) of interest as well as any location preferences. AJC seeks to match applicant’s preferences with the agency’s needs.

AJC Goldman Fellows receive $3,000 for the 9-week program plus major travel expenses. The last two years’ mandatory debriefing session, immediately following the Fellowship, was held during a week-long trip to Germany.

AJC’s Goldman Fellowship Program is made possible by a generous grant from The Joyce and Irving Goldman Family Foundation.

About the AJC

AJC: American Jewish Committee

AJC Logo

American Jewish Committee (AJC), established in 1906 by a small group of American Jews deeply concerned about pogroms aimed at Russian Jews, determined that the best way to protect Jewish populations in danger would be to work towards a world in which all peoples were accorded respect and dignity.

Over 100 years later, AJC continues its efforts to promote pluralistic and democratic societies where all minorities are protected. AJC is an international think tank and advocacy organization that attempts to identify trends and problems early – and take action. Our key areas of focus are: combating anti-Semitism and all forms of bigotry; promoting pluralism and shared democratic values; supporting Israel’s quest for peace and security; advocating for energy independence; and strengthening Jewish life.
