Essay on Interest in Science and Religion
Applicants should submit an essay of no more than 1,500 words
outlining their interest in science and religion and detailing a
specific topic they anticipate covering. They should explain the
topic's importance, its media coverage to date, how they came to
their interest, and how a broad grounding in science and religion
relates to their own career in journalism. While fellows may explore
any aspect of science and religion, the Templeton Foundation is
itself particularly interested in certain topics, which are
described on its website, templeton.org. The choice of a topic is not
binding. Fellows may make the final decision on which subject to
pursue in project work at the first Cambridge seminar.
Writing Samples
Applicants should provide three samples of their best
journalistic work. Writing samples need not cover science and
religion, though an applicant who has written in the field should
submit at least one of these pieces.
Interviews for short-listed applicants will be conducted in
New York or London in February 2005, travel expenses
paid.
Fellows will be selected by an advisory committee made up of
scientists, academics, and journalists.
Fellows will be announced on February 28,
2006.
The fellowships begin June 1, 2006, with a period of
independent study, and conclude with the Cambridge seminar ending
July 31.
