Subject: AAAS Science & Technology Policy Fellowships

 
The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is the largest
general scientific society in the world. In addition to facilitating and
promoting scientific presentations on language at the AAAS annual meeting,
Section Z of AAAS works to ensure that linguistic science is visible and
accessible to other scientists, the media, educators and policy makers. 

The AAAS Technology & Policy Fellowship is a wonderful opportunity for a
linguist to take part in the broad arena of science policy, outside academia.
The fellowship program offers hands-on opportunities to apply your scientific
knowledge and technical skills to important societal challenges. As a fellow,
you will serve a yearlong assignment in a selected area of the executive,
legislative, or judicial branch of the federal government in Washington, D.C.,
enhancing your professional influence by tackling problems and participating
in policy development and implementation.

Fellows receive a stipend of $75–100,000 per year plus other support,
including health insurance, professional development, and targeted fellowship
travel and training.

A qualified applicant must have a Ph.D. in a scientific discipline (including
Linguistics) and must be a U.S. citizen. Applications accepted May 1 -
November 1.
