Bradford Fellowship Alumni

The Bradford Fellowship program offers qualifying, high-performing managers the opportunity of a lifetime: to apply to be awarded a fellowship to attend the mid-career Masters in Public Administration (MPA) program at the Harvard University Kennedy School of Government.

Bradford Fellow recipients receive a scholarship for full-tuition at the Kennedy School, and are paid their full salary while attending the program, including the summer program. Meet some of our Bradford Fellow alums here!
