[7] Receiving Academic Credit for your Internship

Internships are valuable in themselves because of the experience they provide. Students who have completed an internship are better positioned to go on the permanent job market than those who haven’t.

But it is also possible to get academic credit for your internship. For political science undergraduates, completing an internship is one way to complete your capstone requirement. For graduate students in the MPA program, an internship is required unless you have appropriate professional experience. Grad students in the MA program may, but are not required to, complete an internship for credit.

If you are planning a summer or fall internship, make sure that it is eligible for academic credit. Make an appointment with Dr. Taylor (cdtaylor@bsu.edu) to discuss your internship plans.

Intern in Washington DC with The Washington Center

If you're looking for the chance to gain practical experience in your major, you may want to consider an internship with The Washington Center (TWC).

On Thursday, Feb. 27, TWC representative Tara Lavelle will give an hour-long presentation about this wonderful opportunity. Her presentation will begin at 5 pm in room 117 of the Honors College (caddy-corner to Emens Auditorium on Riverside).

The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars gives undergraduates and recent graduates in any major the chance to intern and earn academic credit in Washington. Internships and courses are offered year-round in these areas:

  • Advocacy, Service and Arts
  • Business and Global Trade
  • International Affairs
  • Law and Criminal Justice
  • Media and Communications
  • Political Leadership
  • Science, Technology and Society

TWC participants have interned at hundreds of prestigious agencies and organizations, from the White House to CNN to Amnesty International.

Fall- and spring-semester interns typically earn 12-15 hours of Ball State credit, and summer interns typically earn 6-9 hours of credit. Recent graduates (who participate in a special TWC postgraduate program) receive no credit.

In most cases, applicants must have a GPA of at least 2.75.

If you can't make it to this session, Tara will be scheduling one-on-one appointments with interested students. Please send Barb Stedman (bstedman@bsu.edu) your hours of availability for Feb. 27, and she'll pass them on to Tara.

To learn more about applying for The Washington Center as a BSU student, visit www.bsu.edu/honors/twc.

Internship Opportunity - ACLU Foundation Human Rights Program NY

2014 SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY
NOTICE TO UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS
American Civil Liberties Union Foundation
Human Rights Program, NY

For more than 93 years, the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation (ACLU) has been at the forefront of virtually every major battle for civil liberties and equal justice in this country.  Principled and nonpartisan, the ACLU has offices in all 50 states, Washington, DC and Puerto Rico, and brings together the country’s largest team of public interest lawyers, lobbyists, communication strategists, members and activists in the advancement of equality, fairness, and freedom, especially for the most vulnerable in our society.

The Human Rights Program in the ACLU’s National Office in New York City seeks applicants for a Summer Undergraduate Internship starting in June 2014.

OVERVIEW

The Human Rights Program is part of the ACLU’s Center for Democracy, which works to strengthen democratic institutions and values, and advocates for government transparency and accountability, and to reinforce the United States’ commitment to human rights and the rule of law.  The Center for Democracy includes, in addition to the Human Rights Program, the National Security Project and the Project on Speech, Privacy, and Technology.

The Human Rights Program (HRP) is dedicated to holding the U.S. government accountable to its international human rights obligations and commitments. HRP uses a human rights framework to complement existing ACLU legal and legislative advocacy and to advance social justice primarily in the areas of counter-terrorism, immigrants' rights, women's rights, racial justice, and criminal and juvenile justice.

By using and invoking international human rights law and mechanisms, the ACLU has been able to make advances when previous concerns were dismissed by domestic courts. Having adopted an integrative approach to human rights advocacy that incorporates capacity and coalition building, in addition to utilizing documentation, litigation and legislative strategies, HRP is strengthening the ACLU’s work to advance human rights in the United States.

INTERNSHIP OVERVIEW

The Summer Undergraduate Internship requires a 10-12 week commitment. HRP offers both full-time and part-time internships, with weekly hours that are negotiable. The number of interns accepted for the position varies.  Arrangements can be made with educational institutions for work/study or course credit. A modest stipend will be offered to interns who do not receive course credit and/or outside funding.

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

The internship provides interns with the opportunity to learn about human rights and other public interest work.  Interns will have the opportunity to learn from and interact with other Program staff.  During the internship, interns will:

Work with factual research on issues relating to civil liberties and human rights.
Work on the production of litigation and advocacy materials.
Review government documents obtained through Freedom of Information Act.
Maintain case files.
Assist with preparation for human rights advocacy before the United Nations and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights
Work on other projects as assigned.

DESIRED EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS

The internship is open to students who are currently enrolled in an undergraduate program and have completed their first year of college.  Applicants must possess:

A commitment to civil liberties and human rights issues.
Excellent research, writing, and communications skills.
Strong computer skills, particularly web-based research and proficiency with Microsoft Office Suite.
Demonstrated initiative to see projects through to completion.
Basic knowledge of and/or interest in international human rights law desired.
