Research Fellowships, (top)

Research Fellowships are offered to individuals who have recently completed graduate study in natural resource policy, law, or related fields, and who seek to contribute to a specific program or project at the Institute while preparing for advanced graduate study or their professional career. Research Fellowships are one-year term appointments that can be extended for up to an additional year, with salary commensurate with experience, and access to the full range of employee benefits at the Institute.

Interested individuals are invited to submit a letter of application to jobs@pinchot.org. Letters should include a brief statement of current professional interests and goals for the fellowship. The name and contact information of a faculty advisor reference must be included. This should be accompanied by a curriculum vitae and a recent writing sample. Applications for Research Fellowships are accepted at any time. For further information, please contact the Pinchot Institute at (202) 797-6580 or at jobs@pinchot.org.
