Anthropic Opens Applications for Claude Campus Ambassador Programme with $3,600 Stipends Across Three Pathways

Anthropic has opened applications for the Claude Campus Ambassador Programme, offering university students and researchers a $3,600 cash stipend. The programme has three pathways: undergraduates can lead Claude Builder Clubs, master's students can organise Claude Campus Conversations, and PhD students and postdoctoral researchers can lead Claude Science workshops. Ambassadors will work with Anthropic on student communities, workshops, events and AI education activities, and undergraduate ambassadors receive API credits for AI project experiments. Applications are open through Anthropic's official Claude campus programme page.

The programme embeds AI education outreach in university student communities, with undergraduates, master's students and PhD students taking on building, discussion and research workshop roles, directly affecting how universities organise AI talent development and what practical resources students can access. For AI education product practitioners, Anthropic entering campuses through an official programme with API credits could change competition around AI tool adoption and community operations in universities. The information currently comes only from media reporting and the official application page, with no data on cohort size, execution results or independent evaluation. University students can take on stipended AI community leadership roles and receive API credits for organising workshops and project practice. Anthropic is entering campus AI education through academic-level pathways, which could affect other AI companies' community and talent presence at universities.
