Are you interested in a paid internship in international affairs for the fall semester?
Carnegie specially invites UIC students to apply by August 19!
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace just announced a new internship program for minority students at select minority-serving institutions, including UIC.
The program is designed for rising sophomores, juniors, or seniors who are interested in international affairs and would like the chance to work and learn in a think tank.
Working with Carnegie's Washington, DC-based scholars and staff, interns will gain practical work experience and receive training on how public policy works, analytical research, writing, media skills, and career planning. Students will work part-time up to 18 hours per week and be paid $15.00 per hour. Selected interns will work remotely during the fall semester, from Oct. 4-Dec. 10.
To be eligible, you must be:
- a rising sophomore, junior, or senior as of Aug. 19
- a minority student
- eligible to work in the US
Applicants must submit the following:
- A one-page statement of interest
- One letter of recommendation from a faculty member or academic advisor
- Transcript (unofficial preferred)
- Application form (contact OEF for the form)
OEF will advise students on their statements of interest, so we can help you put your best foot forward! Given that the deadline is very soon, interested students are strongly encouraged to contact OEF right away about this great new opportunity!
Applications are due on August 19!
