Center on Budget and Policy Priorities Internship Program offers paid intern positions in the Fall, Spring and Summer for students interested in a career in public policy. Internships are available to undergraduate students, graduate students, students with a Bachelor's degree and students with a degree in law.
Internships last about 10-12 weeks and include both part-time and full-time positions. Internship areas include Media, Federal Legislation, Health Policy, Housing Policy, International Budget Partnership, Food Assistance, National Budget and Tax Policy, Outreach Campaigns, State Fiscal Project and Welfare Reform and Income Support Division.
The internships give students an opportunity to apply their classroom theories in a real work setting. Duties will vary according to each internship. Each position is designed to give students practical experience in varying facets of public policy and decision making.
Pay will vary according to education level. Both U.S. and international students may apply. Students may also apply for a second internship after completing the first internship. The internships are offered by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, a Washington, D.C.-based organization that works with federal and state governments on public policies and programs for low- and moderate-income families.
