Bowdoin Public Service Summer Fellowships
The Bowdoin Public Service Fellowship program will offer eighteen students the chance to pursue a 10-week summer internship in the fields of government and public policy.
Internships may include working in a federal office, agency, or non-governmental organization affiliated with government function. This comprehensive internship experience includes assistance in securing a placement, cohort meetings, networking with Bowdoin alumni, and a poster presentation showcasing your accomplishments over the summer. Fellowship amounts for the upcoming summer have been adjusted to reflect rising costs of living. Fellowship amounts for Summer 2023 will be $6,000, with an additional $1,000 expenses supplement for students of aid.
