Fullerton : Cal State Plans to Offer Fellowship for Teachers
Cal State Fullerton has been selected as the newest member of a nationwide network of colleges that offer a prestigious fellowship program for future educational leaders.
The university was named this fall as the California site for the Education Policy Fellowship Program. The fellowship program, sponsored by the Institute for Educational Leadership in Washington, is offered at 15 campuses throughout nation.
The program offers a yearlong professional development opportunity for educators who are at their early or mid-career levels. The selected educators study public policy and administrative affairs.
There are 17 educators from California in the fellowship program this academic year. Two of the 17 are from Cal State Fullerton.
Cal State Fullerton President Jewel Plummer Cobb said that bringing the fellowship program to the campus was one of her prime goals for the past academic year. “At Fullerton, we are concerned about making a difference in education in California,” she said.
