Research Fellowships
Georgetown Law's research fellowships are designed for law graduates who plan to enter the tenure-track teaching market for U.S. law schools. The research fellowships have no teaching requirement, although fellows may develop an upper-level seminar course if they choose, and enable emerging scholars to develop their legal scholarship full-time.
For law graduates who have an interest in clinical teaching, we suggest researching the many clinical fellowships at GULC that combine legal practice, teaching, and scholarship. Learn more here. Graduate fellowships associated with the LLM program can be researched here.
Georgetown Law Research Fellowship (2 years)
The Georgetown Law Research Fellowship program is designed to support emerging scholars who seek to pursue a law teaching career. We are seeking applicants who have demonstrated an aptitude for independent legal research, as demonstrated by their work as students or by their professional activities after law school. There are no subject-matter restrictions on the research or teaching agenda fellows may wish to pursue. We expect that candidates will have widely varied intellectual interests, ranging across the full spectrum of legal scholarship. The program is administered by the Office of the Dean of Research and Academic Programs.

The Georgetown Center on National Security and the Law is pleased to announce a new two-year National Security Law Fellowship designed for a highly-qualified law graduate specializing in national security law who intends to pursue a law teaching career. We seek applicants who have demonstrated an aptitude for independent scholarly research, as demonstrated by their scholarly work in law school, research related to other graduate degree programs, and/or their professional activities after law school. The Fellow's time will be spent producing significant scholarship for publication. The Fellow also will contribute to the intellectual life of the Center, by regularly contributing commentary to the Security Law Brief blog run by the Center, and will have the opportunity to take part in the Georgetown Law Fellows' Collaborative in preparation for the academic job market. This fellowship is designed for individuals intending to go onto the legal academic job market within two years.
