AGI Geoscience & Public Policy Internships

AGI's Government Affairs Program offers summer and semester internship opportunities for geoscience students (undergraduates and Masters students) with an interest in public policy and in how Washington impacts the geoscience community. Interns gain a first-hand understanding of the legislative process and the operation of executive branch agencies. They also hone writing, research, and web publishing skills. Descriptions of previous summer interns' experiences can be found in an October 1997 "Political Scene" column from Geotimes magazine and a September/October 1998 Geospectrum article. Each summer the AGI/AIPG interns write articles that are published in The Professional Geologist. The articles are available from the Government Affairs Articles website.

A flyer about the internships that can be posted on bulletin boards is available as a PDF for printing.
