New York University (NYU) has opened applications for the Global Energy, Climate Justice, and Sustainability Fellows Program 2026, a competitive summer fellowship designed to equip graduate students with hands-on experience in climate action, sustainability, and energy-related projects.

This program brings together emerging leaders in sustainability and connects them with experts from academia, government, private sector organizations, multilateral institutions, and environmental non-profits. Selected fellows will gain practical experience, leadership training, and professional exposure while contributing to real-world climate and sustainability initiatives.
