ASA/ACM/AMS/IMS/MAA/SIAM 2020-2021 Science and Technology Policy Fellowship is an opportunity to contribute to the public good. The fellowship focuses on data science and related expertise such as machine learning, data visualization, and causal inference to meet legislative and policymaking challenges.

Fellows serve one year in a federal agency or on the staff of a senator, representative, or congressional committee beginning September 2020. Learn about the executive and legislative processes and lend statistical and scientific expertise to public policy issues.

Individuals who are US citizens and have a PhD in statistics, data science, mathematics, or a closely related field are encouraged to apply. The ASA seeks candidates reflecting the diversity of our society. Applications will be accepted beginning November 1, 2019, and are due by February 1, 2020. The application requires a candidate statement, biographical sketch, and three letters of reference.

This project is funded by a grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.
