Opportunity to Work in Washington, D.C

The Herbert Scoville Jr. Peace Fellowship is a highly competitive national program that provides undergraduates and graduate students the opportunity to work in Washington, D.C., with one of more than two-dozen participating public-interest organizations focusing on international security issues.

Scoville Fellows may undertake a variety of activities, which include research, writing, public education and advocacy in support of the goals of their organization, and may attend coalition meetings, policy briefings and Congressional hearings.

The program has awarded 154 fellowships since its inception in 1987 and is offered in the Spring and Fall semesters. It lasts from six to nine months and provides a salary, health insurance and travel costs to Washington. The Scoville Fellowship does not award grant or scholarship money to students.

Applications for the Spring 2015 fellowship are due Oct. 6. There is no specific major required to apply.
