Introducing the New CITP Non-Resident Technology Fellows 2026 Cohort

March 5, 2026 - 08:58

A distinguished group of technologists has been selected to join the 2026 cohort of Princeton University's Center for Information Technology Policy (CITP) Non-Resident Technology Fellows program. This initiative is designed to bridge the gap between technological expertise and pressing societal needs, fostering collaboration on some of the most critical challenges in the public interest.

The incoming fellows represent a diverse array of backgrounds, including software engineering, data science, cybersecurity, and AI ethics. Their work will focus on applying practical technical skills to domains such as digital privacy, equitable algorithmic design, and strengthening democratic institutions. By engaging with CITP’s academic community and resources, the fellows will develop projects and insights aimed at creating tangible, positive impact beyond the campus walls.

The program emphasizes a hands-on, solutions-oriented approach. It provides a unique platform for practitioners to step back from their daily work and collaborate on forward-thinking strategies. The fellowship underscores a growing recognition that addressing complex modern issues requires deep technical knowledge coupled with a steadfast commitment to the public good. The contributions of this new cohort are anticipated to generate valuable frameworks and tools for a more just and accountable technological future.
