Center for Democracy and Technology - Minority Fellowship
The Center for Democracy and Technology works to promote democratic values and constitutional liberties in the digital age. With expertise in law, technology, and policy, CDT seeks practical solutions to enhance free expression and privacy in global communications technologies. CDT is dedicated to building consensus among all parties interested in the future of the Internet and other new communications media.
The Center for Democracy and Technology offers a stipend to one qualified minority student each summer, supporting his or her work as one of CDT's summer law clerks or interns. The fellowship program, designed to increase the number of underrepresented minorities in Internet policy, civil liberties and CDT's other fields of work, is open to applicants from groups currently underrepresented in the technology law and policy fields, including African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans.
The CDT Minority Fellowship is awarded to one summer law clerk or intern per year. For an undergraduate intern, the Fellowship provides a stipend of $2500 for a full summer's commitment (minimum 8 weeks); for a law clerk or graduate student intern, the stipend amount is $3000.
Recipients of the Fellowship will be selected on the basis of academic record, research and writing skills, familiarity with computer or Internet technology, and interest in technology law and policy issues.
