1099-NEC

I received a 1099-NEC from a fellowship program that I participated in last summer through a large organization. I’m not exactly sure how to file this income, because the options to file would consider this as ‘business’ income. Why is this considered self-employment and does it have to be submitted as business income even though it was income for a summer project??
