This year-long program brings students together from disciplines across campus to engage in discussions of the social, political, moral, and technological dimensions of international conflict and cooperation.
The War & Peace Fellows Program organizes a series of visits by high-level policy makers in Congress, the Pentagon, the State Department, and the Intelligence Community, as well as internationally renowned experts on war and peace, including authors, journalists, and film directors. Students tackle complex issues related to human rights, terrorism, military policy, and climate change. Fellows also will learn about a wide range of career paths available in security fields. W&P Fellows also have the opportunity to travel to Washington, DC, and other destinations to meet with policy makers, military officers, think-tank researchers, activists, and NGO officials—including many Dartmouth alums—working on issues of war and peace.
The War and Peace Program invites applications from prospective Fellows every Spring term. The application process opens each year on April 15; the deadline for applications is May 15. Ordinarily, Fellows must be enrolled at Dartmouth during two of the three terms of participation, although applications from students who are participating in an additional off-campus program or who are away from campus for an off-term will be considered. Fellows are initially appointed for a single year, but are eligible to participate additional years.
Students are required to submit a COMPLETE online application, including a personal statement and transcript. Students must also have a recommender submit a recommendation on their behalf.
