Presidential Engagement Fellows

Visionaries connecting cutting-edge research with local impact across Kansas.

The Presidential Engagement Fellows program is a prestigious, commmunity-focused initiative sponsored by Kansas State University's Office of External Engagement. Each cohort of Presidential Engagement Fellows is comprised of select faculty chosen to bring university excellence directly to communities across the state at no cost.

Formerly known as the Presidential Lecture Series, the program has been reimagined to create meaningful connections between the university and the people of Kansas, inspiring the next generation of K-State students while showcasing our exceptional academic environment.

Our mission: From scholarship to service

Showcase K-State's vibrant academic community and research excellence.
Engage directly with schools and civic groups across the state.
Inspire young minds to pursue higher education — and pursue it at K-State.
Champion the K-State Opportunity Agenda throughout Kansas.
