Students select internships according to their areas of interest, such as government, the media, and national institutions in a variety of fields, federal agencies, and private industries. International relations, journalism, law, medicine, public relations, business, the arts, science and technology, education, and counseling are among the many specialties that students pursue.

Students take an evening course with the our staff and guest instructors. Guest speakers, field trips, slide shows, and recommended readings are part of the program. Housing (both apartments and dormitories) are available through Georgetown University and other area colleges as well as three nonprofit agencies that have apartments and townhouses for interns (although interns have the option of making private arrangements if they prefer).
