CCST’s policy fellowships place professional scientists and engineers in the California State Legislature for one-year appointments. These professional development opportunities will enable fellows to work hands on with policy-makers to develop solutions to complex scientific and technical issues facing California through their interaction with the legislative process. Fellows will receive a $45,000 stipend, as well as $4,000 for relocation costs and $1,200 for medical coverage. Fellows that meet certain criteria can also request a stipend increase. Applications are due February 28, 2013. For more information, see the link below:
