Washington Internship Institute
A co-op is a type of internship that is usually a semester long opportunity, primarily situated within an organization, that supports the academic career interest of the student. Learning is done primarily on site. One or two courses are taught in a classroom setting. The co-op experience usually is a full academic semester of credits.
Fall, spring, or summer internship in Washington, DC. Internships in the public, private, and nonprofit sectors offer practical experience for all majors.
How would you have liked to start your semester by attending the Presidential Inauguration and a pizza party afterwards at the WII offices, meeting former Vice President Al Gore's Chief of Staff, Roy Neel, and former chief speechwriter for former President George W. Bush, John McConnell, at the WII orientation?
