Emile Noël Fellowship Overview

The principal objective of the Emile Noel Fellowship program is scholarship and the advancement of research on the themes prioritized by the Jean Monnet Center for International and Regional Economic Law & Justice. These themes include the following over arching areas: European Integration, general issues of International (principally WTO) and Regional Economic Law and Justice and Comparative Constitutional Law. The expectation is that the residency of our Fellows at NYU School of Law will result in at least one paper that will be of sufficient quality to be published as a Jean Monnet Working Paper.

During the period of residence, we encourage our Fellows to participate fully in the life of the Law School and of NYU in general, not to mention the endless possibilities that New York City has to offer. The Fellows will be expected to play an active role in the activities of the Center including the Emile Noel Fellows Forum, one of the activities we consider to be at the heart of our center. The Forum takes place on a regular basis throughout the fall and spring semester.

Categories of Fellowship

The Jean Monnet Center at NYU School of Law currently offers fellowship opportunities for scholars in the following two categories:

i. Global & Senior Global Emile Noël Research Fellows

Global Emile Noël Research Fellows are post-doctoral or tenured academics with a demonstrable background of legal scholarship.  More senior academics (for example, faculty members tenured for 10 years or more) at the discretion of the selection committee may be designated as Senior Global Emile Noël Research Fellows.

ii. Global Emile Noël Fellows from Practice and Government

Global Emile Noël Fellowships are also open to government officials, judges, officials from international organizations and lawyers in private practice who wish to take a semester or academic year away from their posts to engage in serious scholarship.

Financial Provisions

Emile Noël Fellows are typically expected to provide their own funding.  The Jean Monnet Center is able to offer three $20,000 stipends to Fellows from academia according to need and merit.  For further details, please visit the links below.
