Less than a week is left for students to submit an application to CBO’s 2022 Summer Internship Program. This is a unique paid program that allows master’s and Ph.D. students to obtain real-life experience in policymaking and the federal budget process. We seek students pursuing degrees in economics, public policy, public affairs, health policy, finance, and other quantitative fields. Students should submit a cover letter indicating their skills for and interest in an internship, a resume, an unofficial copy of transcripts (first-year graduate students MUST also submit an unofficial copy of their undergraduate transcripts), and contact information for 2 references (preferably an employment and academic) at www.cbo.gov/careers no later than Monday, February 28 EST. Applications received after the deadline will not be considered.
I have attached a brief overview of the available projects this year. Students can indicate any interest in their cover letter. If an application as already been submitted and they would like to demonstrate an interest in the certain project(s), the letter can be updated by logging back into their account at www.cbo.gov/careers. Please do not email us with this information.
CBO can consider US citizens and non-citizens
We look forward to the opportunity to consider your students.
Thank you for your assistance in spreading the word.
Sincerely,
