Careers, Internships, and Fellowships
Job Openings at the Wilson Center
The Wilson Center consists of two separate, but parallel, pay systems (federal and trust). U.S. Civil Service positions are funded by our annual appropriation from the Congress. Trust positions are funded by private donations, grants and gifts to the Wilson Center.
Internships
The Wilson Center is closely monitoring guidelines established by the CDC and other federal and state authorities surrounding COVID-19. The Center has launched a flexible internship model, allowing for interns to opt for an in-person, remote, or hybrid internship experience. In the event that an intern opts for a hybrid experience, the intern and their respective supervisor will mutually determine the weekly schedule for coming on-site. Applicants that have a strong preference for interning remotely for the duration of their internship are encouraged to state this in their cover letter. We encourage any interested applicants to continue to apply as usual, and to email internships@wilsoncenter.org with any questions or concerns that they may have.
Fellowships
The Wilson Center offers a number of prestigious fellowships in a variety of regional and disciplinary areas.
