Who we are
Pi Lambda Sigma [POLIS] is Cornell's foremost professional society for students pursuing government and policy careers.
Since our founding less than 5 years ago, [POLIS] has managed to equip fellows with the skills needed to land positions at some of the nation's most prestigious think-tanks, consultancies, and agencies.
Join the future of Government
We encourage interested parties who are eager to learn, hard-working, and passionate about government to apply.
Our fellows cultivate essential skills through
Learning how to build and maintain an effective network
Resume, cover letter, and interview preparation
Application process tips & tricks in diverse government fields
Here's a taste of how [POLIS] has impacted our fellows.
