Google Policy Fellowship
"As lawmakers around the world become more engaged on Internet policy, ensuring a robust and
intelligent public debate around these issues becomes increasingly important. That’s
why we’re launching the Google Policy Fellowship Program—to support students and
organizations working on policy issues fundamental to the future of the Internet and its
users. Think of it as the public policy version of Google's Summer of Code. The Google Policy
Fellowship program offers undergraduate, graduate, and law students interested in
Internet and technology policy the opportunity to spend the summer contributing to the
public dialogue on these issues, and exploring future academic and professional
interests."
