The application deadline is October 15, 2020. This one-year fellowship is a unique opportunity for a scientist to contribute scientific and technical expertise to the Department and raise awareness of the value of scientific input. In turn, scientists broaden their experience by interacting with policymakers in the federal government and learning about the foreign policy process. Virtual fellowships are on-going for current fellows, logistics for the 2021-22 term are still to be determined. The fellowship includes a $80,000 annualized stipend, health insurance reimbursement and a professional development allotment. Qualified scientists at any stage of their career are encouraged to apply. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, have a PhD in physics or a closely related field, be members of one or more of AIP’s Member Societies and be eligible to receive an appropriate security clearance prior to starting the fellowship.
