The Center for a New American Security (CNAS) established its flagship internship and mentoring program in honor of Dr. Joseph S. Nye, Jr., who has devoted his career to the preparation and mentoring of generations of Americans and global strategists. The Joseph S. Nye, Jr. National Security Internship and Mentoring Program seeks to follow Dr. Nye's leadership in this area by offering a rigorous internship program involving policy research, writing, exposure to national policy debates and decision makers, and professional development.

Interns work directly with one or more of CNAS’ research programs or business departments: Communications; Design; Development; Defense; Energy, Economics, and Security; Indo-Pacific Security; Middle East Security; National Security Human Capital; Technology and National Security; and Transatlantic Security. Applicants should familiarize themselves with each department's work through the descriptions below and information available on the CNAS website. Your cover letter should, in addition to outlining your qualifications, explain which research areas or departments most interest you and why. Interns work closely with CNAS staff and are given considerable responsibility.

CNAS offers full-time (40 hrs/week) internships for a six-month term. Interns are given a $75 per month transportation stipend and an additional stipend of $1,900 per month intended to help cover daily expenses incurred during the internship. As of September 2021, CNAS personnel have resumed working in our Washington, DC office full-time. Therefore, we are now only accepting applicants who can relocate or are already located in the Washington, DC area.

CNAS is committed to creating a diverse environment and is proud to be an equal opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, disability, age, or veteran status.
