THE ROWLAND INSTITUTE
Pushing boundaries in experimental science & engineering
Rowland Fellowships
The Rowland Institute at Harvard hosts the Rowland Fellows program whereby young experimentalists in all fields of science and engineering establish an independent research program supported by the rich intellectual environment at Rowland, Harvard University, and the greater Cambridge area. The Rowland Fellows program prioritizes maximizing opportunities for interdisciplinary interactions. Check our Fellowships page to learn more about the application process to become a Rowland Fellow.
Research Opportunities
Research opportunities are always available at the Institute. We seek scientists at all levels from undergraduate to postdoctoral researchers. Please check our Opportunities page for current announcements, and feel free to directly email the Rowland Fellows if you are interested in their work.
