Founded in 1903, the American Political Science Association (APSA) is the leading professional organization for the study of political science and serves more than 11,000 members in more than 100 countries. With a range of programs and services for individuals, departments, and institutions, APSA brings together political scientists from all fields of inquiry, regions, and occupational endeavors within and outside academe to deepen our understanding of politics, democracy, and citizenship throughout the world. The Association promotes a lively, diverse community of scholars, teachers, students, and practitioners who bring wide-ranging interests, methodologies, and perspectives to the analysis and conduct of government and politics.
The American Political Science Association (APSA) is pleased to announce a call for applications for an APSA Public Service Fellowship. The Public Service Fellowship will provide an opportunity for a political scientist to gain first-hand knowledge of the politics and policy of congressional reform through direct participation on a congressional committee staff. An orientation and participation in ongoing Congressional Fellowship Program seminars and enrichment programs will further enhance this educational experience.
The Public Service Fellowship is envisioned to last 12 months beginning in summer or early Fall 2021, at the fellow’s earliest availability.
