Description

The Congressional Fellowship for Political Scientists is awarded to political Science fellows who have completed a PhD in the last 15 years or will have defended a dissertation in political science by November of the fellowship year. The program is open to scholars in all fields of study within political science who can show a scholarly interest in Congress and policymaking. The program welcomes applications from political scientists in all subfields who can demonstrate a professional interest in Congress and the policymaking process. While a number of fellows each year are specialists in Congress and legislative politics, others bring expertise in foreign policy, education, healthcare, human rights, tax policy, and numerous other areas. A detailed resume or CV; one sole-authored writing sample; and the names and contact information for three professional references who have agreed to write letters of recommendation are required. Applicants will be notified if they are selected for an interview. Please visit the fellowship's website for more information.
