If you are passionate about health policy development and looking to make a measurable impact in your local community, apply to the Terrapin Think Tank as a first-year fellow! All majors and backgrounds are welcome. Prior policy experience is not required.
The Terrapin Think Tank (TTT) is the University of Maryland’s first student-led think tank developing innovative, community-driven policy solutions to health challenges facing Prince George’s County stakeholders.
Since Fall 2021, they have worked directly with the Prince George’s County Health Department to create, advance, and critically evaluate county-wide policy initiatives to promote the well-being of county residents. Through a 1-credit spring course, Fellows will learn the basics of health policy, work with our leadership team on existing initiatives, and develop their own health policy proposal.
