Internship Funding

CITP is pleased to announce the availability of funding for Princeton undergraduate and graduate student internships in information technology policy.

You can get a better sense of the range of information technology policy issues by looking at the center’s events and Freedom to Tinker blog. Examples of relevant issues include policy surrounding the Internet of things, artificial intelligence, encryption, net neutrality, protections for data privacy, use of technologies for civic goals, open government data, and intellectual property laws governing digital technology.

We do not fund internships that are purely entrepreneurial, such as work for a start-up that has no policy connections.
