TTU's Government & Public Service Internship program provides a rare and prestigious opportunity for a select group of Texas Tech students to live and work in Washington DC for the fall 2015 semester. Regardless of your major or background, this internship yields vast opportunities to network and interact with professionals who can provide great insight and advice on your future academic or career goals.
More than 300 Tech students have traveled to Washington DC as a part of this program. Many have used their internship experience as a springboard into public service careers. Others have chosen to continue their education by entering into graduate or law school, or have started careers in their chosen fields with a greater knowledge of how the federal government works. In this program, you will acquire skills and experiences that will serve you well no matter what your career choice.
Each student selected for the congressional internship in Washington DC will receive $4,000 or more in TTU scholarships. You will also earn course credit for the internship. For undergraduates, it is also possible to pursue a political science minor through the internship. All majors are encouraged to apply, as well as undergraduate, graduate, and professional students.
