What does it mean to be a Water Fellow?

This academic-year long program is designed to prepare students for careers in the water field and connect them to opportunities, attending water conferences and field trips, and joining monthly meetings that delve into critical water topics. The emphasis on a holistic, interdisciplinary understanding of water-related issues prepares the Water Fellows to navigate the complexities of the field.
