Mudd Center Fellows Program

Erica Lord with group

The Mudd Center’s Fellows Program allows faculty and staff to engage with the annual theme through ongoing, in-depth, and interdisciplinary discussion. Fellows engage in a sustained consideration of the annual theme by attending multiple Mudd Center lectures across the academic year, reading a collection of works by the Center’s distinguished speakers, and participating in interdisciplinary sessions to discuss the works and connections among them. Additionally, Fellows have an opportunity to attend special dinners and other events with visiting speakers.
