If you want to make $60,000/yr by providing your technical expertise directly to policy makers in Congress, the Federal Fellows Program provides this unique oppertunity to you.
For a whole year in DC, staff will rely on engineers deemed Fellows for advise into topics such as aerospace, critical infrastructure, risk analysis, energy, manufacturing, and engineering education.
This is a great oppertunity for both congress staff and engineers to work together while providing a great learning experience for the engineer.
