| Internships
Political Science majors can complement their classroom study and research
with practical experience through internships. Such opportunities may be
arranged by the department, the student, or as part of an off-campus study
program. Most commonly, these are undertaken in the senior year.
Department-arranged internships have included placements with the City of
Sunbury and the Borough of Selinsgrove, the Northumberland County District
Attorney's Office, a judge of the Northumberland County Court, and local law
firms. Off-campus internships have included placements with the United
States Department of Justice, the Atlantic Council of the United States, the
Heritage Foundation, in Congressional offices, and in the Public Affairs Office
of the Vice President of the United States.
