This fellowship is open to individuals who are in the process of completing or have recently completed a Ph.D., a professional degree in architecture or urban planning, a research-oriented post-professional master's degree, or a research-focused master's degree.

The ideal candidate should be engaged in a significant interdisciplinary research project in urbanism, broadly defined, and should have a research focus that would benefit from a two-year fellowship among colleagues and students actively exploring the history, theory, and practice of urbanism.
The Fishman Fellowship provides an opportunity for early-career scholars and practitioners in urbanism to develop a project that could take the form of a publication, exhibition, or symposium. Fellows will spend two years in residence, during which they will engage in teaching responsibilities while pursuing their research project. The fellowship offers resources for project development, opportunities to collaborate with scholars and researchers across the broader university community, and a platform to present the fellowship outcomes at a public event hosted by the college.
Taubman College is committed to advancing architectural and urban planning education through diverse epistemologies, experiences, histories, methodologies, and technical and conceptual competencies. The ideal candidate will be intellectually open to the various forms of urbanism taught at Taubman College and enthusiastic about the opportunity to teach students in architecture, urban design, urban technology, and/or planning.
