Description
The Hoover Student Fellowship Program offers Stanford students a competitive, three-quarter paid opportunity to contribute to the Hoover Institution’s research initiatives and organizational work. Students are paired with Hoover fellows or staff members in topical areas of their preference, combining research and operational support with mentorship and exclusive cohort programming. Participants learn about research, policy, and public affairs from their supervisors and leaders at Hoover and beyond.
Projects span economic policy, history, international security, education, biotechnology, energy, artificial intelligence, and public affairs, alongside publishing, audience engagement, research administration, and operations. Work can include collecting and analyzing data, reviewing literature and online sources, tracking current events, and preparing summaries or edited materials. Operational assignments may support meetings, communications, research dissemination, and events.
