Uni-Capitol Washington Internship 2013 - based in Washington, DC
Published 5 Apr 2012, 11:40 am, by Shabana Ahmed
Welcome to the 14th year of a unique international exchange between Americans and Australians taking place in the United States Congress!
In early 1999, a set of internship opportunities was designed and created in Washington, DC exclusively for Australian university students, with the first group arriving in January 2000. By 2003 the demand on Capitol Hill for more Australian student interns and for greater diversity in field study evolved naturally into a multi-university expansion since known as the Uni-Capitol Washington Internship Programme (UCWIP). Personalized experiences and recognition as young professionals are among the hallmarks of this exchange. With the 2013 program, UCWIP adds 2 institutions for a total of 10 participating Australian universities. UCWIP seeks to match 12 or 13 students annually and exclusively to Congressional offices.
Closing date for applications is 23 May. Please see the job listing at http://careersonline.unimelb.edu.au/workgroups/law-school-careers-office/jobs/540777 (or in the Jobs section to your left) for more details.
