The Archer Fellowship

The Archer Fellowship Program provides graduate and undergraduate students from across The University of Texas System with a unique opportunity to live, learn, and intern in our nation’s capital during the summer. Washington, D.C. offers unparalleled opportunities for career development and cultural enrichment. While in D.C., students earn in-residence UT Arlington credit for their coursework and gain hands-on work experience in an internship. The Archer Fellowship Program is tailored to students’ own personal and intellectual interests, which allows them to connect their developing expertise to policy and public service.
