Onuoha Fellowship

📖 About Onuoha Fellowship

The Onuoha Fellowship was founded five years ago to address the challenges of navigating entrepreneurship alone. Traditional higher education often lacks the tools to teach students how to go from zero to one.

Since 2020, the fellowship has shifted its approach to focus on fluency in AI tools such as Cursor, Replit, and Lovable. Fellows are expected to build products, test them in the real world, and gather feedback.

In the last cohort, two fellows from MIT started a company together. The fellowship emphasizes the importance of supplementing college learning with AI, as higher education institutions are slow to update their curriculum. A degree alone is no longer sufficient to thrive in the modern workforce.
