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.

The Future Leaders in Public Service Internship Program is an exciting, paid opportunity for students of all majors to gain professional experience in federal and state government. Managed by the Partnership for Public Service, the program has been placing highly skilled talent from across the country into government agencies since 2022, offering students the opportunity to apply their educational training to work in government. Selected participants receive a 10-12 week internship at a federal or state government agency, a stipend, and professional development sessions including orientation and networking events throughout the duration of the internship. The program aims to identify, recruit and retain the next generation of public servants to address the nation's current and future challenges.

The Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence Talent Initiative is a selective fellowship program designed to recruit, train and retain a world-class digital workforce for the federal government. The program aims to address the estimated 600,000 shortage of cybersecurity professionals in the United States and prepare leaders for an AI-powered future. Fellows selected for the program will be placed at a federal agency with cybersecurity needs for two years, where they will gain vital public sector work experience, develop leadership skills, and build a cross-sector network of technology professionals. During their placement, participants will receive comprehensive professional development opportunities, mentorship from senior leaders in both public and private sectors, and networking opportunities with program alumni and partners. By working for leading federal agencies, participants will develop the skills and knowledge to strengthen the nation's cybersecurity and artificial intelligence capabilities and help build a digital economy of the future. The program is operated by the Partnership for Public Service, a nonpartisan nonprofit organization dedicated to building a better government and stronger democracy.
