Past participants in the Mayor’s Fellowship program have been selected from a variety of academic and professional backgrounds.  Many pursued degrees in public policy, city planning and administration, business, law, social service, landscape architecture, design, and doctorate programs. 

Among our alumni, we count the recipients of prestigious awards such as the Rhodes and Harry S. Truman Scholarships.  Mayoral Fellows have continued on to successful careers at all levels of government, many returning to Chicago to pursue challenging positions with a number of City departments and sister agencies.
