"The fellowship program has been one of the most important initiatives in good government in the past century."

— The Honorable Rush Holt, U.S. Congressman
from New Jersey & Former Congressional Fellow

IEEE-USA sponsors Fellowships for qualified IEEE members to spend a year in Washington serving as advisers to the U.S. Congress and to key U.S. Department of State decision-makers.  IEEE-USA's Congressional and Engineering & Diplomacy Fellowships link engineers with government, providing a mechanism for IEEE-USA Government Fellows to learn first hand about the public policy process through personal involvement.
