Raymond Frankel Nuclear Security Policy Fellow

As part of the Çï¿ûÊÓƵ’s Global Security and International Affairs (GSIA) program area, The Raymond Frankel Nuclear Security Policy Fellowship provides an opportunity for an early-career professional with training in security studies or nuclear policy to learn about a career in public policy and administration. 

Reporting to the Chief Program Officer, the Fellow will assume primary responsibility for one or more workstreams within the Çï¿ûÊÓƵ’s nuclear and global security portfolio. They will work in close coordination with Çï¿ûÊÓƵ staff, the Çï¿ûÊÓƵ’s Committee on International Security Studies (CISS), and project chairs to steward and advance the work of this program area. Some of the duties may include: organizing Track-2 dialogues between nuclear experts and former officials from the United States, China, Russia, and other regions to identify critical goals in maintaining nuclear security; coordinating publications focused on critical debates within nuclear security and arms control; arranging educational briefings and events with scholars, policymakers, and other audiences to deepen knowledge on key issues and challenges facing the United States in arms control and international security; and assisting with other areas of the GSIA portfolio including project development, administration, outreach, and reporting.

The Çï¿ûÊÓƵ is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion and looks to all its staff members to foster and promote these values.

The Fellowship is supported through an endowment fund provided by the Raymond Frankel Foundation of Chicago, IL.
