Completing an international, meaningful and transformative internship is a priority for today’s high-performing professionals. In this increasingly connected world, employers want more than good grades; they want to hire candidates who can demonstrate leadership in a global context, who have familiarity with international affairs, and real-world experience. An internship in the United States will prepare you better adapt, compete, and stand out in the global economy.

Washington, D.C., is a wonderful city. It is the capital of the United States and also the home of important multinational organizations, embassies and top universities. It is one of the world’s epicenters of businesses, politicians, diplomats and public servants. No matter what your interests or background, you will cross paths with key decision makers and leading thinkers in your field.

Here, you’ll develop the skills employers are looking for. You’ll build confidence, motivation and the professional work habits that will help you excel and stand out. And you’ll develop a worldwide network of professional and personal contacts that open doors for the rest of your career.

The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars is the largest independent, nonprofit academic internship program in the United States. Learn more about the unique advantages offered by interning with TWC.
