Presidential Management Fellows

The Presidential Management Fellows program has implemented two changes this year: (1) alumni who received their advanced degree within the last two years are eligible to apply, and (2) applicants no longer need to be nominated by the UW; they can apply directly.

This two-year paid fellowship includes challenging assignments, potential for accelerated promotions, developmental assignments, and networking opportunities. Finalists appointed as PMFs have the opportunity to be hired by Federal Agencies and engage in solving domestic and/or international issues in areas such as public administration, engineering, technology, science, criminal justice, health, and financial management, to name a few.

 For information and applications: Students must apply through the PMF website and USAJobs .  This is a multi-phase application process, including both online and in-person segments.  DEADLINE:  NOVEMBER 19, 2012, 8:59 pm PST.

Eligibility Requirements: Must receive advanced degree between Sept. 1, 2012 and Aug. 31, 2013 or have received advanced degree no earlier than Nov. 5, 2011.   All disciplines are eligible.  Must meet following criteria: breath and quality of accomplishments, capacity for leadership, and demonstrated commitment to a career in the analysis and management of public policies and programs.
