About This Opportunity

James Madison Fellowships were created by Congress to honor James Madison by providing support for master's degrees focusing on the U.S. Constitution. The fellowship program is designed to strengthen instruction on the Constitution in secondary schools. Applicants compete only against other applicants from the states of their legal residence. As funding permits, the Foundation plans to offer one fellowship per state per year. The fellowship supports graduate study leading to a master's degree in American history, political science, or related fields with a focus on the principles, framing, ratification, and implementation of the U.S. Constitution.
