Google's New AI Fellowship Empowers University Educators Worldwide
Google has launched a new programme aimed at university instructors working with artificial intelligence. The Higher Education Faculty AI Fellowship will support academics already using AI in teaching or research. Applications for the first 2026 cohort are now open to eligible faculty worldwide.
The fellowship targets educators who have experience integrating AI into their work. Participants will collaborate with Google Research, gaining access to advanced AI tools and infrastructure to develop practical solutions. Their focus will be on addressing real-world challenges in higher education, such as redesigning assessment methods or improving student learning outcomes.
Fellows will take on specific 'impact challenges' within their own institutions. These could include projects like updating evaluation models or exploring AI governance policies. The programme also features an in-person event in London, designed for networking and global collaboration.
Entry to the fellowship is open through two routes: nomination by a Google leader or direct application. Applicants must submit a portfolio of their AI-related work along with a proposal outlining an institutional challenge they plan to tackle. However, participants will need to cover their own travel and accommodation costs for the in-person components.
The fellowship offers faculty a chance to work closely with Google's AI resources while addressing key issues in education. Successful applicants will join a network of academics focused on practical AI applications. The deadline for submissions and further details are available through Google's official programme page.
