Past Student Internships
As part of their Senior Seminar work, public policy students complete an internship with a Bay Area organization. The senior thesis is written in conjunction with the internship, on a topic that relates to the work of the internship organization.
This list is provided to illustrate the variety of organizations with which public policy students have worked. We cannot guarantee that an internship placement can be made with a particular organization, but we will work with students to help them identify possible internship locations.
