All students interested in learning more about The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars program are encouraged to attend an informative meeting hosted by the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences Office of the Dean.

Each year, The Washington Center offers a variety of internships in and around Washington, D.C. Students work about four days a week at a governmental, for-profit, nonprofit, or international organization assigned to them based on interests and fields of study. The internships cover a range of subjects, such as advocacy, service, the arts, international affairs, law and criminal justice, media and communication, science, political leadership, and policy.
Some of the participating organizations and companies include the American Psychological Association, American Red Cross, Amnesty International, Chemical Manufacturers Association, CNN, Peace Corps, United States Congress, U.S. Department of State, U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, the White House, and the World Bank.
This is a great opportunity to gain valuable, real-life experience while working in the nation’s capital. Internships enable students to work and meet with professionals while building a network of contacts. A successfully completed internship may also lead to a full-time job upon graduation from NSU.
