"Instead of being assigned a single project, my mentor involved me in multiple mission areas of the host office and invited me to meetings with individuals from the headquarters, field site, national labs, and other participating groups.
The program strongly reinforced my interest in working in the federal government and helped me gain experiences for additional fellowship programs in policy, while also tying into my dissertation research."
— 2025 Scholar, Office of Environmental Management, Washington, DC "Connecting with colleagues and even those from other federal agencies was easy and I was able to significantly grow my professional network and learn more about working in the federal government and at the headquarters level. Everyone I connected with was friendly and open to meeting to discuss their work."
