Fordham University’s Graduate Program in International Political Economy and Development (Fordham IPED) is very much interested in receiving applications from returned Maryknoll lay missioners. It is their policy to give preference to applicants who have successfully completed their service as a volunteer for an international development organization and who wish to specialize in International Development Studies. Returned Maryknoll lay missioners are strong candidates in the competition for admission into our program as well as for financial aid awards. Former volunteers who seek careers with international relief and development organizations are strong candidates for the Arrupe Fellowship. Among former Maryknoll lay missioners who graduated from the IPED Program is Gregory Fischer (Class of 2012, Brazil). For more information, visit iped.fordham.edu or email iped@fordham.edu.
