About

The JFEW-SUNY International Relations and Global Affairs Leadership Program, funded by the Jewish Foundation for Education of Women (JFEW), is a two-year program for students from Stony Brook, Binghamton, and Geneseo with a preference for females. The integrated program includes two years of scholarship support (up to $5,500 each year), a monthly seminar series for two academic years, and a paid internship in a New York-based global organization offered during the summer between the Junior and Senior years. The Two-Year Academic Program will start in September 2022. The goal of the program is to prepare students for careers as practitioners in the field of international relations and global affairs and to create strong mentor and peer networks that will continue to support students’ goals through their careers. Students from all backgrounds who match the criteria are encouraged to apply.
