Public Policy and International Affairs Fellowship

The Public Policy and International Affairs (PPIA) Fellowship provides access to the Junior Summer Institute (JSI) Program hosted at top graduate policy schools in the nation. These six-week summer programs prepare students with the knowledge and network to succeed in the field of public service. The fellowship includes full tuition for coursework in statistical, quantitative, and policy analysis, along with visits to local, state, and federal government organizations and NGOs. Students of all backgrounds are welcome to apply to the PPIA Fellowship. The program features guest lectures and panel discussions from public servants, PPIA alumni, and university faculty, as well as GRE test prep resources. Participants complete a summer capstone project and presentation, receive a stipend upon program completion, gain access to the PPIA Network, and have the opportunity to receive financial support for graduate school education if they attend one of the programs in the Graduate school consortium.
