The intro EA fellowship is a great first step in getting deeply involved in our club and in EA more broadly. It is an introduction to core EA ideas, cause areas, and tools, that can help you make a bigger impact on the world over your lifetime.
Hereâs the syllabus. Youâll do about 1 hour of reading and 1 hour of small-group discussion each week for 7 weeks, with meetings scheduled according to your availability. We add 1 week into the dates given above as a buffer for particularly busy times.
Topics include: moral philosophy, differences/distribution of impact between causes & interventions, cause prioritization, global health & development, factory farming, long-termism, pandemics, artificial intelligence, critiques of EA, and impactful career choice.
Applications are closed for this semester - stay put for applications for next semester and join our mailing list to stay updated.
We meet roughly bi-weekly (time and place TBD) for workshops/discussions on EA-related things. Hereâs some topics weâll cover during these meetings:
Here are some other ideas for later on in the fall. Let us know in the feedback form at the top of any of them sound particularly good or bad, or if you have your own event ideas to share!
