The
Women Leaders in Sustainability Fellowship is a one-year program open to Cornell University graduate and undergraduate students designed to accelerate career and executive-leadership advancement in sustainability-related fields.
Fellows will engage in personal leadership development, mentoring & networking with acclaimed women leaders in sustainability, and be provided with a paid internship focused on designing and implementing a strategic project for climate and sustainability impact at Cornell University.
"The fellowship experience has been designed to empower leaders to action," said Sarah Brylinsky, Sustainability Business Integration Manager in the Campus Sustainability Office.
"Our goal is to give exceptional candidates a head-start in advancing their sustainability careers. We need greater gender diversity in sustainability leadership positions, across most industries and impact areas. This fellowship aims to accelerate that change."
