The Project on Nuclear Issues (PONI) identifies and cultivates emerging leaders in the nuclear field and builds the relationships, expertise, and cross‑community engagement needed to address pressing policy challenges. Through its programs, PONI provides opportunities for emerging experts to learn about the policy, technical, and operational aspects of the nuclear enterprise; develop and present new ideas; engage in informed debate; and visit sites across the nuclear community. PONI also conducts research across the full range of nuclear policy issues, including deterrence, arms control, and disarmament. INTERN POSITION PONI is seeking two full‑time paid interns to support the program's research, programmatic, and administrative work from early September to mid‑December 2026.

KNOWLEDGE, EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE Must be at least a college junior in good standing. Must be eligible to work in the United States.
