Fellows

One of the guiding principles of the Strauss Center is to bring the best and brightest minds together to develop effective solutions to pressing global challenges. Fellows at the Strauss Center research, write, teach and engage in public discussion about a variety of pressing issues in global affairs.

Distinguished Strauss Fellows are scholars and practitioners whose exemplary careers serve as inspiration to others.

Strauss Senior Fellows hold tenure or have the equivalent practical experience. Strauss Fellows are younger scholars working on cutting-edge issues.
