Reischauer Policy Research Fellows Program Program Overview:
Inaugurated in May, 2013, the Reischauer Policy Research Fellows Program is a key program of the Reischauer Center at the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS).
It is designed to support the Center’s research program, while also providing recent university graduates with broad practical experience regarding the public and private-sector policy analysis process in Washington, D.C. Fellows, who receive an annual stipend of over $21,000, are selected annually through a nationwide-search process. Fellowships are tenable for one full calendar year, and potentially renewable for an additional year.
Please see our website for general information about the Center and our Facebook page which features photos and summaries of recent events and recent mentions in Japanese and American press.
Job Description:
Reischauer Policy Research Fellows assist the Director of the Reischauer Center personally on research projects of the Center, including, but not limited to: the functioning of Washington’s “idea industry”; US-Japan relations; the role of cities in global governance; comparative Eurasian political economy; East Asian regionalism; energy policy; and comparative public-health issues. Fellows also assist in organizing a rigorous and substantive seminar series for the Reischauer Center, focusing on finding best-practice solutions through comparative public-policy analysis for emerging energy and health-care issues.
They also assist in developing a web-based system for diffusing ideas generated by the Reischauer Center on a global basis, and perform other research and policy analysis as appropriate.
