Since 1977, the Presidential Management Fellows (PMF) Program and its predecessor, the Presidential Management Intern (PMI) Program, have been attracting outstanding graduate, law, and doctoral-level students to the Federal service.
The PMF Program is your passport to a unique and rewarding career experience with the US Federal Government. It provides you with an opportunity to apply the knowledge you acquired from graduate study in support of public service programs. Assignments may involve public policy and administration, domestic or international issues, information technology, human resources, engineering, health and medical sciences, law, financial management, and many other fields.
You can view the slides from the PMF Presentation for Academic Institutions| for a detailed overview of the programme.
