Jacobs CIFAR Research Fellowship Program

The Jacobs CIFAR Research Fellowship Program is a globally competitive fellowship for early and mid-career researchers focusing on learning and development in children and youth. It funds fellows at their home institutions for a period of three years to support research activities, with emphasis on interdisciplinary work and evidence-to-action in education and related fields.

Independent and competitive funding, access to a fellowship network, opportunities for networking and development, and non-financial benefits such as collaboration and visibility within the Jacobs Foundation network.

Fellows are highly talented early and mid-career researchers who have obtained their PhD within the past 10 years and are employed at an institution of higher education or research institute.
