OVERVIEW
Learn About Our
Fellowship Program
DEC Fellows receive training in dataset coding and gain hands-on experience by expanding, enhancing, and analyzing the Democratic Erosion Event Dataset (DEED), as well as contributing to additional research and policy-focused projects. Our partner universities identify Fellows who come together to work and learn with the DEC team. Our Summer Fellowship is a ten-week remote training program with an initial one-week in-person training held in Washington, D.C. or Chicago. We also offer a fully remote Fellowship Program in the Fall and Spring terms.
Our Fellows have come from the following partner universities and colleges:
