DPU Fellowship schemes
Our fellowships are aimed at our alumni and provide the opportunity to develop experience in the field and to build upon the knowledge and skills acquired throughout the MSc study.

The Bartlett Development Planning Unit promotes the view that learning by doing is a core principle to promote socially minded development practitioners. This ethos underpins all of our MSc teaching, and has also influenced the development of our exciting fellowship schemes.
Our fellowships are aimed at our alumni and provide the opportunity to develop experience in the field and to build upon the knowledge and skills acquired throughout the MSc study.
In addition, fellowships are based at institutions that we have close relations with. The work undertaken during the fellowships are valuable in supporting our partner organisations in their operations.
We offer the following fellowships, listed below.
