Urban Institute
5 open jobsGeneral information
The Urban Institute is a research and policy organization. It studies issues that affect the well-being of people and communities, and gives policymakers evidence-based solutions. Its Tax Policy Center studies tax policy, WorkRise focuses on employment and workforce development, and the Commission on AI and the Future of the American Workforce studies how AI affects jobs. The Urban Institute is based in Washington, DC.
The Lyndon B. Johnson administration set up the Urban Institute in 1968 to evaluate Great Society programs and study urban problems. It has grown into a research organization with about 748 staff members as of 2024. That history as a government-created group means its research often feeds directly into public policy debates, which can matter to someone who wants their work to reach beyond a single company.
Currently, there's a total of 5 job openings at Urban Institute. Over the last 30 days, 5 jobs were added and 3 were removed (job postings usually stay up ~30 days before being removed). Urban Institute is an H-1B sponsor.1
