The James C. Gaither Junior Fellows program provides substantive work experience at the Carnegie Endowment in Washington, DC, for students with a serious career interest in international affairs. Junior Fellows provide research assistance to scholars working on the Carnegie Endowment programs and have the opportunity to conduct research for books, co-author journal articles and policy papers, participate in meetings with high-level officials, contribute to congressional testimony, and organize briefings attended by scholars, journalists, and government officials. Successful applicants must have an outstanding academic record, demonstrated excellence in research, analysis, and communication. Applicants must also have a clearly defined career path in international affairs with relevant previous experience, coursework, and/or activities and deep and substantive experience with the Carnegie program area of interest. In some programs, related language fluency is required.
