We say all the time here at ONEin3 that City government is an excellent place to make a direct impact on the world.
Well here’s your chance to get in the mix:
Along with Mayor Menino, we encourage graduate students to apply to the Boston Urban Mechanics Program!
The Boston Urban Mechanics Program is a fellowship and internship program with the City of Boston. Interns and fellows with the Boston Urban Mechanics Program will have the chance to be “urban mechanics” and learn first-hand the challenges and rewards of public service in one of the nation’s most innovative city governments, led by Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino.
Fellowship assignments are two-year appointments, fellows serve as advisors to the Mayor. In addition to generating new ideas, fellows will learn about the mission and work of City departments working alongside Cabinet Chiefs, Department Heads and senior staff, while participating in professional development and educational seminars.
The Boston Urban Mechanics Program - Policy Institute is an eight week internship for graduate students in the City of Boston interested in working in public service. Interns will work in a cohort, generating and implementing creative and thoughtful new policies to benefit the City of Boston.
We have a little bit of time, but the deadlines are approaching:
Boston Urban Mechanics Program Fellows: February 4, 2020
Boston Urban Mechanics Program Policy Institute: March 4, 2020
