Explore public service in the executive branch.
A cornerstone of the Fielding Center, the Fielding Fellows program provides a select group of Gettysburg College students with an immersive experience centered on the executive branch of the United States. The year-long fellowship focuses on separation of powers dynamics, constitutional law, and diplomacy. Each year, Fielding Fellows travel to a presidential library to conduct archival research, facilitate on-campus panels and debates, and work on an in-depth public policy project.
Opportunities experienced by past Fielding Fellows have included:
- Attending a luncheon with the White House Fellows
- Visiting the John F. Kennedy Library in Boston, MA
- Receiving a Diplomacy Lab Project from the U.S. State Department
In 2021-22, the Fielding Fellows program will be led by Prof. Scott Boddery.
