The Stanford Distinguished Careers Institute is a dynamic program for highly accomplished individuals from all walks of life who seek to transform themselves for roles with social impact at the local, national, and global levels. In partnership with the Stanford Center on Longevity, our yearlong program utilizes the wealth of innovation and knowledge at one of the world’s finest universities to create new and enriching professional and purpose pathways for the next stage of life. The DCI provides the opportunity for about 25 Fellows annually to engage in personal reflection and intellectual exploration in the company of peers who form new and lasting communities and networks.
“Your most important opportunities and fulfillment in life could still be ahead of you. Join us to create something unique that can impact you and the world.”
– Dr. Phil Pizzo, Founding Director
