Internship Opportunity with The Foreign Policy Initiative

The Foreign Policy Initiative (FPI) Internship Program seeks rising college seniors and graduate students of the highest caliber with interest in the fields of, but not limited to, international studies, defense, national security, democracy and human rights, political science, and foreign affairs.

Interns are encouraged to attend stimulating discussions around the local D.C. area and to interact closely with FPI's in-house experts.
