Print and online journalists in the United States with less than 10 years of experience can apply for a fellowship.

The Robert Novak Journalism Fellowship funds a one-year writing project focusing on American culture and free society. Separate fellowships also focus on environment, free enterprise and law enforcement.

Full-time fellows will receive US$50,000, and part-time fellows will receive US$25,000.

Finalists will be invited to Washington, D.C., for interviews with the judges, and the winner will be announced at an awards dinner at the National Press Club.

Submit a fellowship proposal, work samples, resume, budget statement and references.

The deadline is February 12.
