The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) S&T Policy Fellowships (STPF) program provides opportunities to outstanding scientists and engineers from a broad range of disciplines, backgrounds, and career stages to learn first-hand about policymaking in the federal government while contributing their knowledge and analytical skills. In support of our efforts to cultivate science policy leaders, STPF provides a year-long professional development program designed to complement fellows’ experience in their placement offices.
Annually, STPF solicits trainers, coaches, facilitators and/or faculty members to conduct trainings through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. We seek engaging, cost-effective programming on topics related to policy and the federal government, communication, leadership, and networking & career strategies. Each workshop will provide fellows with skills and information to achieve the STPF professional development program goals and learning objectives.
