<h3>Eagleton Science and Politics Fellowship<o:p></o:p></h3>
<p>The Eagleton Science and Politics Fellowship offers PhD-level scientists and engineers the opportunity to apply their training and expertise to the development and implementation of relevant state policy. As full-time aides in the executive or legislative
branch, Science Fellows bring their advanced technical skills to service in state government.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>During the one-year program, Science Fellows participate in the political process and support New Jersey state government officials in making evidence-based decisions in public policy areas involving science, engineering, and technology. Through this work,
they develop an understanding of state government and learn how to build careers in public service.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The program begins with an intensive summer training seminar focused on New Jersey state politics and government, covering topics such as effective communication strategies, power structures, and political processes. Throughout the year, Science Fellows
participate in professional development and networking sessions organized by the Institute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<h4>Overview<o:p></o:p></h4>
<p>The Eagleton Science and Politics Fellowship is a year-long, full-time fellowship for doctoral-level scientists, engineers, and healthcare professionals based at the Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers University – New Brunswick.
