In order to allow students to get hands-on learning about gender and global issues in real-world settings, there are both domestic and international internships available. Internships are an ideal vehicle for local and global outreach. They enrich the educational experience of students while contributing to the quality of life in surrounding communities. Our program provides academic and analytic context for internship experience through faculty-guided research papers and creative projects.
