Dear Colleagues,

We are excited to announce that the GSA Office of Evaluation Sciences (OES) is currently accepting applications for fellowships beginning in October 2018 in Washington, D.C.

We’re particularly seeking accomplished researchers with expertise in the social and behavioral sciences (e.g., marketing, psychology, economics, etc) and experience conducting rigorous experimental research who can take temporary leave from their universities or research institutions to serve as Fellows, as well as rising-star researchers for Associate Fellow positions. OES is also eager to host detailees from other government agencies on a reimbursable or non-reimbursable basis.

The deadline to submit an application is 11:59pm EST Sunday, January 14, 2018.

Who is OES?

OES is a team of applied researchers tasked with applying insights from the social and behavioral sciences to federal programs, and testing and learning what works. OES partners with federal agencies to evaluate the effectiveness of new evidence-based interventions on program outcomes and provides agencies evidence to make informed programmatic decisions.

Over the past three years, OES has led over 45 randomized evaluations with agency partners. OES has made major strides improving federal programs by applying and testing the impact of behavioral insights on a diverse range of agency outcomes. For more information on our portfolio to date, go to
