Harold W. Rosenthal Fellowship in International Relations

Established in 1977 to honor the memory of Harold Rosenthal, a Senate staff member who was a victim of a terrorist act while on official duty at age 29, the Rosenthal Fellowship program provides graduate students in international affairs with the opportunity to intern at a congressional or executive branch office in federal, state or local government for the summer. The Rosenthal Fellowship is part of the Partnership's Future Leaders in Public Service Internship Program team. Rosenthal Fellows will join Future Leaders interns for shared programming, including the program kickoff, closing, and professional development opportunities, and will also participate in Rosenthal-specific development and cohort activities. The fellowship offers two concurrent pathways to placement: applying directly to internship positions in federal, state, or local government agencies and Congressional offices, or being matched to select opportunities through the Future Leaders team. Selected participants receive a 10-12 week summer internship at a congressional or executive branch office and professional development sessions, including orientation and networking events throughout the summer.
