Are you interested in the intersection of your work or research with federal policy? Wishing that you could contribute your scientific and technical expertise to address pressing social issues? Join this webinar to hear about three fellowships that are available to scientists and engineers across a range of career stages. Representatives from these programs will provide an overview of eligibility, application process, and fellowship experience. They’ll also share other ways to get involved in science policy including volunteer opportunities and scipol networks. You’ll leave this session knowing how you can explore your science policy interest as a science policy or federal fellow. This is the first in a two-part series on science policy career paths. Join us for Part II on September 1, to meet four individuals who will share their career trajectories and experiences in science policy!
