Elon University offers the only Teaching Fellows program available at a private, co-educational institution. The program involves extensive, required travel experiences at home and abroad for academic credit.
Fellows study for a full semester in London and do an internship in a British school.
A history study tour of sites in eastern America ranges from Williamsburg to Boston. A leadership seminar in Washington, DC, is provided for Fellows. On campus, the Teaching Fellows are eligible to participate in the prestigious Honors Program. In addition, Fellows may room in clustered housing during the freshman year and take part in Elon 101, a special semester-long orientation to college life. Fellows develop strong mentor relationships with their academic advisers.
