Winter Passion Projects (‘25-’26)
This year, the Keck Center will be sponsoring winter Passion Projects in two key themes: (1) sports and international diplomacy and (2) international political economy. The passion projects are short-term independent projects of an appropriate scope to be completed over the break (approximately 50 hours of work). Projects must lead to a research product (paper, policy memo, podcast series, etc.) that can be posted on the Keck Center’s website. The application deadline is November 23rd, 2025. Fellows will be awarded an $800 stipend upon completion of the fellowship project.
