Just thought I’d pass on information about two internships:
- The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy and
- LIN Broadcasting Minority Scholarship and Training Program
FIRST…
The White House Office of Science and Technology Policy is currently accepting applications for its Summer 2014 Internship Program. The application deadline is 11:59pm Friday, March 7. Students who are U.S. citizens and who will be actively enrolled during the 2014 academic year are welcome to apply.
More information and application instructions are available at http://www.whitehouse.gov/ostp/about/student/.
About OSTP. The Office of Science and Technology Policy advises the President on the effects of science and technology on domestic and international affairs. The office serves as a source of scientific and technological analysis and judgment for the President with respect to major policies, plans and programs of the Federal Government.
About the Internship Program. Interns are accepted for one of three annual terms (Spring, Summer, or Fall), which each last no more than 90 days. While these positions are without compensation, the assignments provide educational enrichment, practical work experience, and network opportunities with other individuals in the science and technology policy arena.
For questions, please contact Rebecca Grimm [email protected].
ALSO… LIN Broadcasting is accepting applications for its Minority Scholarship and Training Program open to both sophomores and juniors, through March 31, 2014.
