Opportunities in Science and Technology Policy
National Student Policy Network
The National Science Policy Network (NSPN) is a non-profit representing early career science policy, advocacy, and diplomacy groups distributed across the country, focused on providing a platform for sharing resources, building relationships, and training the next generation of scientists and engineers to be pivotal voices in all levels of policy making.
Engineers and Scientists Acting Locally
Engineers and Scientists Acting Locally (ESAL) is a national organization dedicated to increasing local engagement by professionals with backgrounds in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
Engaging Scientists and Engineers in Policy
The Engaging Scientists & Engineers in Policy (ESEP) Coalition is an ad hoc alliance of organizations that have joined together to empower scientists and engineers to effectively engage in the policy making process at all levels of government (international, federal, state and local).

California CCST S&T Policy Fellows
Each year the California Council on Science and Technology (CCST) Science Fellows program recruits a corps of fifteen PhD scientists and engineers. These Science Fellows spend one year in Sacramento, directly serving decision makers within the California State Legislature and Executive Branch.
Idaho Science & Technology Policy Fellowship
The ISTPF provides opportunities for outstanding scientists, social scientists and engineers to learn firsthand about policymaking while using their knowledge and skills to address pressing challenges facing Idaho. Fellows support decision makers in Idaho, serving in yearlong assignments across state agencies.
Missouri Science and Technology Policy Fellowship
MOST policy fellows will provide much needed resources for Missouri General Assembly. Fellows will assist in scientific, rather than legal, research before bills are written, and also help to inform senators and representatives on benefits and consequences of pending statutes and regulations.
New Jersey Eagleton Science and Politics Fellowship
During the one-year program, Eagleton Science & Politics 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.
North Carolina STEM Policy Fellowships
The NC STEM Policy Fellowship will place graduate students into state government offices focusing on policy topics related to science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
