About USC Annenberg Center for Health Journalism Data Fellowship 2023
Our Data Fellowship offers journalists an opportunity to transform their reporting by training them to “interview the data” as if it were a human source.
Equipped with the tools to find original sources of information and perform data analysis, Fellows graduate from this hands-on training program prepared to produce a major investigative or explanatory health reporting project in the months that follow.
Program Details
This program offers training on data acquisition, cleaning, analysis and visualization led by some of the nation’s most skilled data reporters and journalism practitioners. They teach journalists how to “bulletproof” their data, ensuring accuracy in reporting.
Whether you are new to data reporting or you want to master more advanced techniques such as the “R” programming environment, our personalized program — with its three skills tracks — will equip you with tools and techniques to produce major investigative and explanatory health reporting projects.
Benefit
Following the training week, Senior Fellows mentor reporters as they pair original data analysis with compelling narratives culminating in a groundbreaking Fellowship project focusing on an overlooked health issue in their community.
Admitted Fellows receive:
- A $2,000 stipend to defray reporting costs
- A four-day in-person, hands-on training in beginner, intermediate or advanced Excel or R-Studio
- Five months of professional mentorship, including skills-building workshops and ongoing learning
Fellows also are eligible to apply for five months of professional mentorship in engaged journalism and $1,000-$2,000 to support those creative efforts.
Eligibility
I’m a student. Am I eligible to apply to your Fellowships?
Our Fellowships are open only to professional journalists. Full-time students are not eligible to apply.
I’m a freelancer. Am I eligible to apply for your Fellowships?
We welcome freelancers to apply, but they must earn the bulk of their income from journalism and have a confirmed assignment with an outlet to be considered. This includes a signed editor checklist and letter of recommendation.
I’m not a health reporter. Am I eligible to apply for your Fellowship?
Yes. We embrace a broad definition of health and the belief that it is shaped by our environment — our schools, our neighborhoods and our communities. In accordance, we admit many reporters across a spectrum of beats and train them to view their reporting through a health equity lens. Some of our very best Fellows never formally covered health before attending our Fellowship.
