Guided by this belief, the Fannie and John Hertz Foundation identifies the nation's most promising innovators in science and technology, and empowers them to pursue solutions to the world's toughest challenges. Through the Hertz Fellowship, we provide the nation's most promising graduate students in science and technology with five years of funding, valued at up to $250,000, and the research freedom to pursue innovative ideas with real-world impact. One of our most powerful differentiators is the lifelong support we provide our community of more than 1,200 Hertz Fellows, including mentoring, professional development workshops, and networking opportunities.
The fellowship includes up to five years of funding, valued at up to $250,000, and the freedom to pursue innovative projects wherever they may lead. In addition, fellows take part in ongoing mentoring, symposia, and workshops with our vibrant community of more than 1200 fellows, a set of peers who span disciplines, generations, and geography. Before applying, we encourage you to explore the details of the fellowship to make sure it's the right fit for you.
