The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Science, Technology and Policy Program is designed to provide opportunities for postgraduates and faculty to participate in programs, projects, and activities at the Department. Fellows will receive hands-on experience that provides an understanding of the mission, operations, and culture of the DOE. As a result, fellows will gain deep insight into the federal government's role in the creation and implementation of energy technology policies; apply their scientific, policy, and technical knowledge to the development of solutions to issues of importance to the DOE and continue their education and involvement in areas that support the DOE mission either in a technical or policy-related role.

What will I be doing?
During the fellowship, the selected fellow(s) will support the implementation of Community Benefit Plans (CBP’s). CBPs are a new requirement for many DOE funding opportunities that put the social needs of a project on level with the technical needs. Fellows will learn to describe how the project advances four core principles: investing in America's workforce; engaging communities and labor; advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility; and implementing Justice 40 in the CBP.
The fellow will participate in the implementation of this framework in DOE funding by coordinating with different DOE offices and answering specific questions about CBPs. Fellows may also participate in drafting additional CBP-related research, CBP guidance, standard operating procedures, and reporting.
