Cornell Brooks School of Public Policy Annual Fund

The Cornell Jeb E. Brooks School of Public Policy is dedicated to advancing the well-being of all people. We develop new approaches to solve pressing global policy challenges, provide rigorous training for the next generation of policy leaders, and engage in policymaking around the globe.

The Brooks School was founded to unify Cornell’s wide-ranging expertise in policy research, education, and engagement. As a world-class institution, we’re positioned to tackle the complex global policy problems of our time. In the context of Cornell’s land-grant mission, the school’s faculty explore how government decisions and actions intersect with people’s lives and conduct research to inform policy innovation.

Future priorities for the Brooks School Annual Fund include:

• $5,000will enable one student to participate in faculty-led summer research.
• $10,000will provide funding for the Brooks School State Policy and Advocacy Clinic, where students spend a year directly engaging in policy development in New York State.
• $25,000will enable two students with financial need to participate in Cornell in Washington summer experiences, which include internships and courses taught by policy practitioners.
