Subject: DC Science & Technology Policy Internships - info session Thursday

HI All,

We're having an information session for our MIT DC summer internship program this Thursday, October 6 (and another one on November 8).   This program is specifically designed for students majoring in the sciences and engineering fields who are interested in finding out more about science and technology policy.  If you have time please send this to your students.  We will have other information sessions and I am happy to meet with students one-on-one to give them more information on the program.

Thanks!

Tobie

The MIT Washington Summer Internship Program provides technically sophisticated undergraduates the opportunity to apply their scientific and technical training to public policy issues.  The core of the program is focused on the summer months, when students receive paid internships in the offices of government agencies, the private sector, and advocacy groups.  Complementing the summer internships are a trip to DC during spring break and a 12 unit HASS seminar on policymaking that meets before and after the summer internship.

Past summer interns have worked in the White House Office of Science & Technology, the US House of Representatives Science Committee, the US Department of Energy, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, NASA, the American Association for World Health, the American Enterprise Institute, the Congressional Research Service, the Institute of Medicine, The Environmental Protection Agency, The Department of Defense, the Brookings Institution, the Economic Policy Institute, The General Accountability Office, the National Academy of Sciences, The World Bank Group, the National Institutes of Health, The American Association for Public Health,  The Childrens' Defense Fund, the Climate Institute, the MIT Washington Office and more!

DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS IS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 2012
