James H. Dunn, Jr. Memorial Fellowship
and Vito Marzullo Internship Program
The Dunn Fellowship Program provides bright, highly motivated
college graduates a unique opportunity to experience firsthand the operations
of state government for one year.
Dunn Fellows are recruited from public and private colleges
and universities throughout the nation. Qualified applicants must hold a bachelor's
degree at the program's commencement and must have demonstrated a commitment
to excellence through academic honors, leadership ability, extracurricular
activities and community/public service involvement. The program begins in
August and ends in July of the following year.
Successful applicants spend one week of August receiving an
orientation to state government. After the orientation period, fellows are
placed in different positions throughout the Governor's Office and in various
agencies under the Governor's jurisdiction.
Dunn Fellows are paid $31,332 annually and receive full state
benefits.
Vito Marzullo Interns possess the same credentials as Dunn Fellows
and enjoy similar benefits and experiences; however, they must be Illinois
residents.
To participate in the 2010 Internship Program applications must be postmarked by February 28, 2010.
