The real world is the next frontier, and at Metropolis, we are creating the artificial intelligence to make it responsive. We are pioneering the Recognition Economy — a future where mundane repetition disappears and being known unlocks access, comfort and belonging everywhere you go. From transforming parking into a seamless drive-in, drive-out experience for millions of Members to expanding our intelligence layer across retail and hospitality, we are building a world that feels instinctive and magical. The future isn’t coming; it’s here, and we need builders, innovators and problem solvers to help us create it.
The Metropolis Policy Fellowship is a six-month student mentorship initiative designed to cultivate future leaders in public policy, emerging technologies, and urban studies. This program offers hands-on research experience, direct mentorship from senior leaders at Metropolis, and a flexible commitment tailored to complement your academic schedule.
As a Policy Fellow, you will conduct an independent research project and produce a policy paper on a topic related to AI and emerging technologies, urban policy, mobility and parking, or the recognition economy.
A $3,000 cash stipend will be provided upon successful completion of the program to be used toward educational expenses. Compensation for air travel and two nights of hotel stay for the final reception in Nashville will be provided for New York and Los Angeles fellows.
The Metropolis Government Affairs team will also make a reasonable effort to recommend the publication of the best reports externally or publish a shortened version on the Metropolis blog.
The Metropolis Policy Fellowship is an educational mentorship initiative and does not constitute a contract of employment. Participation in this program does not create an employer-employee relationship between the Fellow and Metropolis. This is a non-salaried position; the provided stipend is intended solely to support educational expenses and is contingent upon the successful completion of program milestones.
Metropolis values in-person collaboration to drive innovation, strengthen culture, and enhance the Member experience. Our corporate team members hold to our office-first model, which requires employees to be on-site at least four days a week, fostering organic interactions that spark creativity and connection
