Project Overview
Project Description
During this Editorial Fellowship, a fellow will be working on generating journalistic content related to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), exploring scientific and technological issues with the Engineering for Change (E4C) and American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) editorial team. This would involve developing story ideas (both independently and from editors), researching topics, and conducting interviews with relevant stakeholders. The fellow will write publishable articles based on their research and reporting. During this project fellow will work closely with editors from both E4C and ASME Mechanical Engineering (ME) magazine. The fellow will also undertake a mandatory feature-length article specifically for Mechanical Engineering magazine.
Impact
The Editorial Fellowship empowers journalists to report on engineered solutions to global challenges in sustainable development. Through this experience, fellows would get the opportunity to develop professional skills and inform their work through engagement with a worldwide network of experts in this vital, but under-reported field. Fellow’s articles, videos and photos will be published online and in print before a global audience on two unique platforms. Fellows craft their own experience throughout the program, with options to explore a high standard of scientific journalism through long-form articles, news briefs, social media, video, photography, webinars and a capstone project with Mechanical Engineering Magazine.
