Information on the City of Chicago Mayor's Office Fellowship Program:
The Office of the Mayor of the City of Chicago is in the process of
recruiting graduate students for its 2008 Fellowship Program.
The Mayor's Office Fellowship Program is a wonderful opportunity for
currently enrolled, graduate students who are interested in local
government and public policy. Participants have the opportunity to get
a broad overview of municipal government, as well as unique, hands-on
experience in the development of new policy and program initiatives.
Participants research policies and evaluate their potential benefit to
Chicago, draft memoranda for senior staff on upcoming issues and new
initiatives, and participate in a variety of special events that provide
a unique insight into how City government operates.
Attached is a .pdf version of the program brochure and the program
application.
Selection Process
