Application | Fellowship in AI Ethics – Forms and Applications

Applicants must fill out the application completely before clicking on the “Submit” button at the end of the form. The system will not save incomplete applications. Fields marked with an asterisk (*) are required; if they are not completed, the application cannot be submitted. Fill out the application form in English. For questions that require lengthier responses, applicants may draft their responses in a separate tool (e.g., a word processor), and then paste the text into the application form.

As part of the application process, applicants must upload three documents in PDF format:

A detailed but brief research proposal in English of no more than 1,000 words. Bibliographies and references do not count toward the word limit.
A curriculum vitae in English.
A sample of their work in English of no more than 10,000 words (including bibliography and references).

Additionally, all prospective applicants should provide contact details for two recommenders.

The deadline for submissions is Sunday, January 31, 2027, at 11:59 pm (Eastern European Time). References must be received by February 7, 2027, at 11:59 pm (Eastern European Time). Once applicants have submitted their application, CHS will automatically contact their referees and ask them to fill out a brief reference form.

Following their applications, some applicants may be invited to online interviews.

Applicants with questions should contact Evan Katsarelis, CHS Greece Associate Director of Academic and Research Programs, by email (ekatsarelis@chs.harvard.edu).
