Partnered Fellowships

Apply directly to a research project set by a partner organization. Partners set the agenda and mentor the teams; Apart runs the program, with project management, compute and publication support. No Sprint needed.

How it works

  1. Application

    Read an open fellowship’s projects and mentors, then apply on its page: a written application, and for some a work test or interview.

  2. Selection

    Mentors select the participants for each project, with support from the Apart team.

  3. Partnered Fellowship

    Work on a scoped project with direct mentorship, compute, project management and regular feedback.

  4. Publication

    Aim for concrete outputs at top venues. We support publication and cover travel to present in person.

Why join

Mentored by the partner
Partner organizations set the research direction and mentor the teams. You work on a clearly scoped project instead of developing your own idea from scratch.
Track record
Our first Partnered Fellowship, with Martian, secured over $70,000 in research support for the fellows, and two teams were accepted to NeurIPS 2025 workshops.
Fits around work
About 16 weeks, a minimum of 10 hours per week, fully remote. For domain experts, busy professionals and students who want research experience without relocating.

Have your own research idea? The Apart Fellowship starts from a Sprint.
