If you are worried about your GPA\, please reach out to Amber to discuss (akblomqu). \nStudents work full-time internships four-five days a week that they secure on their own with guidance and support from the MIW program. Additionally\, they take evening elective courses\, leaving weekends free to explore the city. The semester before going to D.C.\, participants take a professional development course focused on internship search strategies\, resumes and cover letters\, and effective networking and interview techniques.\n\nInternship Opportunities\nBecause students choose and secure their own internships\, placements can reflect a wide range of interests. With MIW’s guidance and support\, students have recently interned at:\nCongress & Government: Offices of Rep. Haley Stevens\, Rep. Debbie Dingell\, Sen. Gary Peters\, Sen. Dick Durbin\, Sen. Josh Hawley\nPolicy & Research: Center for Strategic and International Studies\, Wilson Center\, Women’s Congressional Policy Institute\, Northeast-Midwest Institute\, Institute for the Study of War\, Brookings\, \nConsulting & Government Relations: Forbes Tate Partners\, SKDK\, Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck\, Baker Donelson P.C.\, Ferox Strategies\, \nNonprofits & Advocacy: Rock the Vote\, U.S. Global Leadership Coalition\, Guatemala Human Rights Commission\, World Wildlife Fund\, United Nations IFAD\, Association of American Universities\nLaw & Public Service: Federal Public Defender Service (Maryland)\, DC Attorney General – Criminal Public Safety\, D.C.

If you are eager to learn outside the classroom and immerse yourself in the vibrant city life of Washington\, D.C.\, this program is for you.\n\nFunding Information\nAll admitted students automatically receive a $1\,500 scholarship. Additional funding is available based on financial need.\n\nQuestions? Contact Amber Blomquist at akblomqu@umich.edu.
