Applied Public Policy Fellowship
The Center for Systems Integration's Applied Public Policy Fellowship position is currently filled by Quinn Lung, a Ph.D. student at the School of Public Affairs, University of Colorado, Denver.
Fellows have an opportunity to build research skills in a fast-paced environment while working with policymakers, advocates, and other researchers to improve state and local policies. Fellows are part of a team of public policy consultants who provide facilitation, mediation, policy development, and public policy research to projects that have an immediate impact on complex policy issues in Colorado.
The Fellowship is a two year position open to Ph.D. students in Denver, Colorado. The first year focuses on building research skills as part of a team, including learning about participatory research, q-methodology, social network analysis, focus groups, key informant interviews, regulatory analysis, and fiscal analysis. Second year fellows have the opportunity to lead the research component of one or more projects, including designing and implementing the research, conducting the analysis, and reporting the results to policymakers and the public. Fellows have opportunities to co-author and author policy reports and articles for publication in academic journals.
The request for applications for the fellowship will be released by March 2010 for the August 2010 – July 2012 position. Please check back for complete application instructions.
