Borchard Fellowship in Law & Aging

Applications due April 10, 2026

The Borchard Fellowship in Law & Aging offers the opportunity to carry out a substantial project related to law and aging in partnership with a host agency. Two two-year fellowships are available to law school graduates interested in, and perhaps already in the early stages of pursuing, an academic and/or professional career in law and aging.

The fellowship is $70,000 a year for two years and is intended as a full-time position only. During the fellowship period, the Center’s director and former fellows are available to help fellows with the further development of their knowledge, skills, and contacts. Fellows may also receive financial support from the Center to attend appropriate professional education program opportunities.

A fellow is expected to provide the Center with monthly activities reports. Fellows may live and work where they choose in the United States. Fellows must be either U.S. citizens or legally resident in the U.S. Read more information about the fellowship.

The online application is live starting March 2, 2026. Begin the online application process here.

MILS can serve as a host for this fellowship.
