Undergraduate Internships

Political Science Internship Program

The Department of Political Science encourages students to pursue internships that connect academic knowledge to career-related work experiences.  Internships give students the opportunity to try out a career area in a non-profit organization, government office, or for-profit business.  Interns build professional networks in a selected field of interest while improving job seeking and decision-making skills, and cultivating future career options.  The Political Science Internship Program is designed for students who wish to receive academic credit while interning.  Students may intern during the fall, winter, spring, or summer.

Do I HAVE to receive credit?  Can I just do an internship for experience?   YES, YES, YES!  Most students doing an internship just do it for the experience.

***Special Program for students who can't/don't receive academic credit for an internship: Provide a letter from your internship supervisor confirming completion of an internship (including the length and average hours per week) - on the organization's letterhead - to the POLS Advising Office (Advising@polsci.ucsb.edu) and receive a UCSB Political Science t-shirt. 

 

Do I qualify for academic credit?  [YOU MUST BE ENROLLED IN UCSB CLASSES IN ORDER TO RECEIVE CREDIT]
Political Science students interested in applying for internship credit must have:

  • junior or senior standing
  • a minimum 3.0 GPA overall and in the major
  • Pre-Political Science or Political Science major status
  • Enrolled in UCSB courses during the same period of the internship

 

How do I receive academic credit?
To receive academic credit interns must:

  • submit an application to an organization whose mission complements the study of political science
  • submit an application with the Department by the end of the 2nd week of the quarter.

 ***Students can apply up to four units of INT credit toward their Area D, POLS upper division elective area ONLY.   1 unit = 3 hours per week over 10 weeks of the internship.
