style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">The
Christine Mirzayan Science & Technology Policy Graduate
Fellowship Program is designed to engage early career
individuals in the analytical processes that inform U.S.
science and technology policy. Fellows obtain the essential
skills and knowledge needed to work in science and
technology policy at the federal, state, or local levels.
Fellows spend 12 weeks at the National Academies in
Washington, DC learning about science and technology policy
and the role that scientists and engineers play in advising
the nation. Each year, applicants from around the world
become part of a National Academies committee, board, or
unit. Each fellow is assigned to a senior staff member who
acts as his or her mentor. The mentor provides guidance and
ensures that the fellow’s time is focused on substantive
projects and activities within the fellow’s assigned unit.
An immersive experience, the program is designed to broaden
fellows’ appreciation of employment opportunities outside
academia and leave them with both a firm grasp of the
important and dynamic role of science and technology in
decision-making and a better understanding of the role that
they can play in strengthening the science and technology
enterprise for the betterment of mankind.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
