Capital Experience
|
Shape policy. Attend Congressional hearings. Write press releases. Develop marketing plans. Participate in meetings. Plan events. Perform scientific experiments. Interns in WII’s Capital Experience internship program accomplish these activities and more!
During your internship, you have an opportunity to interact with experts and professionals in your field. As a WII intern, you become an active member of the office staff with real responsibilities. You can expect to fully participate in office life, attending meetings and special events, performing research, writing reports, preparing briefings, etc.

And what do we hear from our students after their internships? They tell us that their internships dramatically enhanced their learning, boosted their confidence, and made them competitive in the job market.
In addition, although WII does not award credit, most students get a full semester’s worth from their home institution. Check with your advisor or contact WII for more information.
