Opportunities

The Center of Policy Research and Governance (CPRG) is committed to nurturing the next generation of policy scholars and practitioners. Our engagement programmes — spanning internships and governance fellowships — offer students, young professionals, and researchers the opportunity to work closely with CPRG’s research teams on questions central to public policy and governance. These are structured, merit-based pathways into the institution’s research ecosystem, designed to build both analytical capability and substantive policy expertise. Joining us means becoming part of a community that values ideas, evidence, and action.

CPRG’s internship programme offers a structured introduction to applied policy research. Interns work closely with faculty and research teams on ongoing projects, gaining exposure to the methods, evidence, and institutional processes that underpin public policy analysis.

The programme is designed to build core research competencies — including literature review, data analysis, and policy writing — while offering interns the opportunity to contribute substantively to CPRG’s research output.

Fellowship offers early-to-mid-career professionals an opportunity to engage directly with questions of institutions, public administration, and policy implementation. Fellows are integrated into CPRG’s research teams and programmes are intended to build cadres of practitioners equipped to bridge research and public administration.

CPRG currently offers two fellowships — the Governance Fellowship and the Transforming Society with AI Fellowship — each designed around a distinct area of policy focus. For more details, visit the pages linked below.
