Stanford in Government (SIG) is a non-partisan, student-run organization dedicated to promoting political awareness, providing public service opportunities and fellowships, and assisting students in their search for quality experiences in the public policy arena. Members arrange a variety of events including speakers, discussions, and voter education programs.
SIG's Fellowships Program provides highly qualified, ambitious students with meaningful exposure to the public policy process through a number of paid summer fellowships pre-arranged by SIG. These are offered in government and nonprofit agencies locally, in the Bay Area and Sacramento, Washington D.C., and internationally. In addition, SIG's Stipends Program provides funding for students who wish to participate in self-arranged public policy internships.
Fellowships and stipends require a commitment of at least nine weeks of full-time work during the summer and provide students with stipends of at least $4,000, depending on location. Only continuing students (freshmen, sophomores, juniors, and senior co-terms) may apply.
