Subject: Federal/Global Fellows Program Application Due Friday, April 19
Description:
Think a career in public service is only for government and politics majors?
Think again! Federal agencies, nonprofits/NGO’s, think tanks, and
policy-related organizations are interested in your scientific expertise as
they confront pressing issues in science, technology, healthcare,
cybersecurity, and sustainability. The Global Fellows and Federal Fellows
Programs offer you a chance to take your skills out of the classroom and
apply them in the real world. Apply today! Earn Scholarship in Practice
credit and a Fellows Program notation on your transcript!
Both programs combine a fall seminar in an issue area with a spring
internship in Washington D.C. Some of our concentrations include Science
Diplomacy, Energy and Environment, Water Security, Responses to Global
Challenges, and Homeland Security Policy. Past internship locations include:
National Institutes of Health; Department of Energy; Genetic Alliance; House
Committee on Science, Space, and Technology; Aerospace Industries
Association; Department of State; Bureau of Oceans, Environment & Science;
White House Office of Science and Technology Policy; and Department of
Homeland Security. Year-round activities include trips to Capitol Hill and
federal agencies, professional development workshops, and conversations with
policymakers.
