AWIS has just extended the deadline to apply for the Multicultural Undergraduate Internship Program.

With the generous support of the W.K. Kellog Foundation, AWIS is offering summer internships in Washington D.C. for female undergraduate students who are members of typically underrepresented ethnic groups.

The Multicultural Undergraduate Internship Program  is intended for  currently enrolled undergraduate female students in any one of the STEM disciplines. The internships are intended specifically for outstanding female  undergraduate students who are members of groups currently under-represented in the STEM disciplines: individuals of African  American, Latino/Hispanic, Native American, and Pacific Islander descent.

Internships provide training and work experience in areas such as marketing and communications, public policy, fund raising, grants administration, and information technology.  Opportunities to develop professional leadership skills are also encouraged.
