Internship Programs

The Department administers two internship programs, one with government agencies [0110-396. Public Administration Internship (4)] and one with non-governmental agencies [0110-397. Fieldwork in Public Interest Organizations (4)]. Both Politics and other majors can pursue internships for course credit with a wide variety of organizations in the Bay Area, and thereby link the academic experience in the classroom to practical work in the field. The internships are offered every semester, and all students beyond their Freshman year are encouraged to enroll. See Professor Johnson or Professor Elias for more information.
