Job and Internship Opportunities
AEI Summer Honors Program
 AEI’s Academic Programs provides a variety of educational and professional development opportunities for undergraduates through programs like the year-round Executive Councils and the annual Summer Honors Program.
 
Applications for the 2023 Summer Honors Program are open now!
 
AEI’s Summer Honors Program is a fully funded opportunity for students to come to AEI headquarters in downtown D.C. to engage in a week-long seminar course taught by AEI scholars and partners, expand their professional networks, and explore our nation’s capital. In line with an advanced undergraduate course, students complete selected readings in preparation for the Socratic-style seminar discussions. The 2023 SHP will take place over four weeks next June: June 5-9, June 12-16, June 19-23, and June 26-30, and the instructor lineup is fantastic.

This is truly a unique program that has led to future jobs and graduate school opportunities for many of its alumni. Please don’t hesitate to reach out at summerhonors@aei.org with any questions.
Researchers at Princeton University, Northeastern University and George Washington University are seeking a research assistant
 
The research is an ongoing project investigating how local organizations and residents participate in local politics to shape policy outcomes in the United States, particularly related to public service provision and natural disaster response and preparedness, and implications for equity and the distribution of risks. The project seeks to understand whose voices are heard – or left out – of critical local policymaking processes. The research assistant will work directly with Dr. Sara Constantino and Dr. Alicia Cooperman on a mixed-methods research project engaging with coastal communities on the Texas Gulf Coast, in Miami and other locations. The ideal candidate can come from various social science backgrounds but should be highly motivated and interested in political science (*American politics or comparative politics*) and/or *public policy* .
 
Average of 10-20h/wk. Ability to work remotely. RA will be hired as an independent contractor by Princeton University at $20 per hour. International applicants are eligible.
