We hope that you’ll help us communicate to eligible students on your campus the many advantages of a Washington Center intern abroad program. Students who take part have the opportunity to combine a study abroad experience with the practical advantage of interning in an international setting. They’ll begin the semester or summer with a ten-day academic seminar in Washington, D.C. before heading to their destination city where they’ll complete coursework and a substantive internship.

Our intern abroad program offerings for 2010 include:

Washington, D.C.-Sydney Internship Program (spring, summer)
Washington, D.C.-London Internship Program (summer, fall)
Washington, D.C.-Oxford Internship Program (summer only)

We’re extending our deadline for the spring D.C.-Sydney Program until November 13 in order to give students additional time to apply. Prospective interns from your institution who attend as undergraduates will also qualify for the funding from the state of Florida that they receive while completing our Washington, D.C. internship programs. The total is now $5,000 during the semester and $4,500 during the summer and details are found here: www.twc.edu/students/financial_state.shtml#flo

If you’d like to find out more about these opportunities, please visit www.twc.edu/internabraod or feel free to contact us at internabroad@twc.edu or 202-238-7900 any time! We’re also happy to provide you with materials you can distribute on campus to promote the programs.

Please let us know if you, your students or colleagues have questions at any time. Thank you for bringing The Washington Center’s intern abroad offerings to the attention of students you believe would be strong candidates.
