New America's Education Policy Program seeks applicants who have a strong interest in education and/or learning technology policy for a paid summer 2014 internship. The interns will primarily assist the program's full-time staff members with research, data, and policy analysis for issue briefs and policy reports. Interns must be self-starters who are excited to work both independently and as part of a team on a variety of education-related research projects.
New America's Education Policy Program is a think-tank industry leader in PreK-12, higher education, and the workforce. In addition to conducting research in these areas, interns will have the opportunity to write blog posts, attend events on behalf of New America, and gain exposure to some of the brightest and most ambitious thinkers in the field. They will also have the opportunity to attend in-house events, professional development, and off-the-record policy lunches with fellows and staff from other New America policy programs.
