Students
Attend the Presidential Inauguration Seminar
We’re offering a once in a lifetime opportunity to witness history in the making through our upcoming Presidential Inauguration Seminar. Since 1984, The Washington Center has hosted this popular seminar that gives students from across the country the unique opportunity to experience, firsthand, politics and media in twenty-first century.
Students will have the opportunity to:
- Gain political insight from great speakers and events
- Meet national and international leaders
- Build a professional network and explore potential career paths
- Understand the media’s impact on the presidential campaigns
- Witness history and democracy in action
The program provides both students and faculty with an exceptional behind-the-scenes perspective on Washington politics and media, through site visits, tours, and special events. Site visits often include embassies, executive branch offices, Congressional offices, media organizations, and nonprofit think tanks and trade associations. A bus tour of Washington, D.C. and special events, including a reception at the National Press Club is also included in this program.
This program runs from January 12-22, 2013 in Washington, D.C. The program fee of $1,995 includes housing and credit, when proper arrangements are made with your institution.
Application Deadline
We have reached capacity for this seminar but are still accepting applications on a waitlist basis until December 10, 2012. For more information, please contact us at C2012@twc.edu [1].
What students had to say about the National Conventions Seminar
“It brings everything you are studying to life. It's incredible because you can't read about what's going on here, you have to come here and experience it and for me it's been a chance of a lifetime to be able to come here and see how everything works."
