CBO provides the Congress with objective, timely, nonpartisan analyses to assist economic and budgetary decisions and with the information and estimates required for the Congressional budget process.

Fellowships can provide experienced economists with a unique opportunity to address complex budgetary and economic policy issues. CBO is especially looking for people specializing in macroeconomics, health economics, financial economics, and public finance but welcomes applications from economists working in other areas. Fellows conduct research, use the agency's data and facilities, and work daily with colleagues at CBO to contribute to analyses and publications. Fellows are also able to participate in professional development opportunities and are in an excellent position to draw on the resources of professionals at CBO and other federal agencies, as well as the extended policy community in Washington, D.C.

Graduate-level education provides a strong foundation and background in science that will enhance the Fellow’s effectiveness as a conservation professional.

The GFP assists selected scholars in identifying an appropriate institution of study; the award covers the costs of graduate school application fees, preparation and fees for exams such as the GRE and TOEFL, and other instruction as needed. Once matriculated, the GFP provides $30,000 towards tuition, room, board and a stipend, with the exact arrangement dependent upon the institution the fellow chooses to attend.

Each year, WCS field staff nominates applicants by March 1. Applications without WCS endorsement will not be considered. Applicants are notified of decisions in September, and tuition awards begin with matriculation the following year.
