The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Science, Technology and Policy Program is designed to provide opportunities for postgraduates and faculty to participate in programs, projects, and activities at the Department. Fellows will receive hands-on experience that provides an understanding of the mission, operations, and culture of the DOE. As a result, fellows will gain deep insight into the federal government's role in the creation and implementation of energy technology policies; apply their scientific, policy, and technical knowledge to the development of solutions to issues of importance to the DOE and continue their education and involvement in areas that support the DOE mission either in a technical or policy-related role.
About the Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains
Established in 2022 as a new office under the Office of the Under Secretary for Infrastructure, The Office of Manufacturing and Energy Supply Chains (MESC) serves as the frontline of clean energy deployment, accelerating America’s transition to a resilient, equitable energy future through $20 billion of direct investments in manufacturing capacity and workforce development. MESC develops and provides the analytical tools that help to inform programs and investments across DOE and the U.S. Government.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) 40207(b) Battery Materials Processing and 40207(c) Battery Manufacturing Grants will invest more than $7 billion in the batteries supply chain over the five-year period encompassing fiscal years (FYs) 2022 through 2026. This includes sustainable sourcing of critical minerals from secondary and unconventional sources, reducing the need for new extraction and mining; sustainable processing of critical minerals; and the end-of-life battery collection and recycling.
MESC’s Battery and Critical Materials Office, which oversees several BIL and Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) provisions including the 40207(b) Battery Materials Processing and 40207(c) Battery Manufacturing Grants, is interested in ORISE fellows to assist in supporting battery and critical materials supply chain development.
