The Governor’s Office of Planning and Budget’s six-month fellowship program helps individuals develop professional skills while gaining firsthand experience with state government. In the program, fellows integrate into one of GOPB’s four areas of focus: Budget & Operations, Policy & Economic Analysis, Planning & Coordination, or Results Management. Fellows will also gain exposure to the office as a whole and the partners with which the agency interacts.
