Opportunity Insights (OI) recently completed a successful round of hires for our predoctoral program from our Fall 2024 hiring process.
OI is excited to announce our Spring 2025 hiring round where we will identify additional fellows for our predoctoral program beginning in July 2025. These full-time positions will be based in Cambridge, MA. Predoctoral fellows will work closely with Raj Chetty (Harvard), John Friedman (Brown), Nathan Hendren (MIT), and other OI collaborators at Harvard and other universities.
The predoctoral fellowship is geared toward students interested in working with us for two years after graduating from an undergraduate or master’s program. Predoctoral fellows will work on research and analyses related to economic mobility. Additionally, predoctoral fellows have opportunities to participate in seminars and other research activities in a team-oriented lab environment. The program serves as a good bridge between college and graduate school for students interested in applied economics and mobility scholarship. Our Spring application deadline is Tuesday, February 11, 2025.
We particularly encourage applications from groups traditionally under-represented in Economics. Even if applicants are uncertain whether their technical research skills or subject-matter knowledge will be competitive, we strongly encourage their application.
Further details and application instructions are available on our website.
