The Roosevelt Institution is a non-profit, non-partisan national network of campus-based student think tanks. Its members conduct policy research on the pressing political issues facing our world, from environmental protection to equality under the law to trade and taxes. The Roosevelt Institution connects the fruits of that research to the policy process, delivering sound, progressive proposals to policymakers and advocacy groups at all levels of government as it organizes, trains, and empowers the next generation of progressive leaders. Catalyst seeks to drive the merger between science and policy. Between these two worlds lies an informational barrier that frequently isolates policy-making from pertinent, cutting-edge research. It is time to bridge the gap with policy ideas that reflect authoritative technical research. With a natural disposition for action, a critical stake in shaping the future, and the ability to study and understand complex problems, students are ideal candidates to help bring science and policy closer together.
