Becoming a Build Fellowship university partner means your students have access to experiential learning, with 1:1 domain-specific training by foreign national experts working in the fastest growing industries.
The Build Fellowship offers students access to global expertise, providing world-class subject matter training and hands-on Build Projects. These experiences offer real industry exposure, a global perspective, and mentorship opportunities for ambitious students.
Partnering with international student departments, The Build Fellowship serves as an immigration solution for students finishing Optional Practical Training (OPT) or alumni in need of a cap-exempt H-1B visa pathway.
Our national network of Fellowship programs enables international students and alumni to pursue high-growth careers, continue working for their companies, or start their own businesses in the U.S.
Students apply to projects most suited to their background and career aspirations. They must meet the prerequisites to be considered for selection. Each project is 8-weeks long, operating on a rolling basis.
Selected students participate in weekly live sessions with a Build Fellow. Each student works with a Build Fellow employed by one of our non-profit partners to produce a deliverable worth adding to their portfolio.
After participating in all project modules and bringing their project to fruition, students will receive a certificate of completion.
