Leonard D. Schaeffer Fellows In Government Service

The Schaeffer Fellows program strives to make summer internships in government accessible to qualified undergraduate students. Schaeffer Fellows receive specialized support to complete 10-week, high-level internships at all levels of government. The professional development curriculum distinguishes the program from other government service internship opportunities and focuses on professionalism, networking, fostering camaraderie and interaction, and utilizing the fellowship as a launchpad for future opportunities. Fellows make connections with government and private sector leaders and participate in activities customized to support undergraduate students still early on in their career exploration.
