Undergraduate Scholar Program

Take a step to becoming a difference-maker with Cornell Brooks Institute of Politics and Global Affairs Undergraduate Scholar Program

Scholars: 

  • Get unique in-person access to policymakers and lawmakers. 
  • Meet monthly with IOPGA director and former Congressman Steve Israel and with IOPGA faculty director Prof. Douglas Kriner. 
  • Visit Capitol Hill for an “all access” tour. 
  • Travel to New York City for face to face meetings with thought leaders. 
  • Build a network of fellow politically-engaged students.

The IOPGA Scholars program and the Brooks School, in particular, not only played a crucial role in securing my dream internship on Capitol Hill, but also fostered connections that led to a full-time role following graduation.
