Fellows work full-time in high levels of the Executive branch and meet weekly for graduate seminars.
This program uniquely integrates work experiences with academic and professional development.
Seminars provide an academic perspective on policy and administrative issues that are relevant to the public sector.
The fellowship experience begins with a comprehensive orientation to California state government, including briefings by the Governor's staff, Constitutional Officers, legislative staff, academicians, and others.
Unique to the Executive Branch experience is the inherent range of topics and levels of responsibilities.
