The Millennium Fellowship’s 2nd year kicked off in August with a new cohort of 18 students. This year the Millennium Fellowship is a course set up to help students learn the leadership and project management skills necessary to develop projects. The projects students designed and started include those listed below. Students graduated as Millennium Fellows on November 18 in a ceremony held virtually worldwide.
