Graduate Student Opportunitiy

The United Nations Association of the National Capital Area (UNA-NCA) would like to formally invite graduate students from the George Washington University to join their Graduate Fellows program!

The UNA-NCA Graduate Fellows Program provides an opportunity for Washington, D.C. area graduate students interested in international affairs, development, trade, finance, and related disciplines to explore the role of the United Nations within the context of modern global affairs and other international organizations.  The UNA-NCA Graduate Fellows Program offers participants the chance to build strong professional and academic skills through relevant internship experiences and a series of seminars on global issues and the United Nations. 

Since it was initiated in 1991 by officials of the UNA-NCA, with the mission of bringing together the resources of the organization and the 15 members of the Consortium of Universities of the Washington Metropolitan Area, the program has involved over 500 students and 40 international organizations.  UNA-NCA’s access to the United Nations system of agencies and a diverse range of professional relationships has helped make this program one of the most successful UNA programs in the country.
Our program includes seminar sessions, membership in the UNA-USA GenUN Programan opportunity to be mentored by a senior Washington, D.C.-based professional, incredible networking opportunities, and the production of a publishable article on a relevant UN related topic.

The deadline for the Spring 2018 UNA-NCA Fellows Program applications is Tuesday, October 31, 2017 at 5 pm.
