The Prometheus Fellowship Program is Students For Liberty’s flagship leadership development and objectivism program that carefully selects top-tier leaders from over 45 countries. These fellows, representing the best and brightest, engage in a journey of self-discovery, guided by rational thinking philosophy, and craft career development plans critical to their future success. This comprehensive, international program comprises over 150 hours of Leadership and Objectivist online classes, twice a year, all-expense paid in-person workshops, and year-long one-on-one mentorships, all aimed at making a profound impact on their professional and personal lives, ultimately contributing to positive global change.

You will receive a stipend of $500 per semester towards your professional development.
Get your bags ready! You will have the opportunity to go on fully paid face-to-face training each semester. You’ll travel to different places and network with great leaders, mentors, and students from all over the world.
You will attend rational philosophy sessions and practical leadership classes led by expert faculty, preparing you to excel as a professional.
You will receive individualized career mentoring with a reference in the area you want to work in: you will receive a personalized orientation to facilitate your choice and approval in graduate courses and land your first job.
Your work in SFL will be crowned with this exclusive fellowship, and you will be recognized as one of the organization’s crème de la crème students.
