The Rural Design Project Fellowship is an exciting opportunity for students and researchers passionate about leveraging design, planning, and innovation to address the unique challenges of rural communities. This fellowship brings together emerging researchers from diverse disciplines—including architecture, urban planning, environmental design, and public policy—to collaborate on impactful projects that enhance the quality of life in rural areas.

Through hands-on research, community engagement, and interdisciplinary collaboration, fellows will gain valuable experience in designing sustainable and resilient solutions tailored to the needs of rural populations. This immersive program not only strengthens research skills but also fosters meaningful connections between fellows and the communities they serve.
