Yale World Fellows is an international fellowship program at Yale University for mid-career emerging leaders who have distinguished themselves in their profession, discipline, or geographic region. Each year, between fifteen and twenty participants, known as World Fellows, reside at Yale for the fall academic term. World Fellows are selected from a wide range of fields and disciplines including government, business, nongovernmental organizations, religion, military, media, and the arts. While at Yale, World Fellows participate in a global affairs seminar, leadership workshops, and Yale courses. The program's main facilities are located in Betts House, a university-owned mansion in the Prospect Hill Historic District of New Haven, Connecticut. ==Origin== In November 2000, University President Rick Levin announced several internationalization initiatives, including the World Fellows program, in conjunction with the university's tercentenary. Journalist and White House aide Brooke Shearer was appointed its founding director, and Dan Esty its first program director. The program moved into Betts House, restored in 2001 to house new international initiatives. The first class of fellows was admitted in 2002. Since the program's establishment, 257 World Fellows have been selected for the program, representing 83 countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yale World Fellows」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
