Federal Semester Program 2013-2014


Want college credit for a Washington internship?  Interested in public policy?  Intrigued by the idea of a career in public service?  Apply now to the Federal Semester Program for 2013-2014! 
 
In this selective year-long program, students take a fall-semester seminar in one of four policy-focused concentrations: Foreign Policy, Homeland Security Policy, Federal Health Policy, and Energy/Environmental Policy.  They then work a spring-semester internship in federal agencies, congressional offices, think-tanks, and other policy-related organizations.  Federal Semester students have interned in such agencies as the Department of State, the Department of Homeland Security, the National Institutes of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, and many, many more.  Year-round activities include trips to Capitol Hill and federal agencies, professional development workshops, and conversations with policymakers.

Contacts: federalsemester@umd.edu ; Dr. Joan Burton, Director (jburton1@umd.edu); Megan Monserez, Coordinator (monserez@umd.edu).  First round of applications due April 5
