MIT Washington Summer Internship Program

The MIT Washington Program has, since 1995, placed undergraduates from across the Institute in summer internships where they actively contribute to this process. Housing and a stipend are provided, and clerical work is minimized, so students can apply their research, analysis, and writing skills for their internship sponsors, which include many of the country's most influential offices and organizations.

The program includes on-campus classes before and after the internships, and requires a spring break trip to Washington. Participants come from every part of MIT, and apply their experience in a wide range of careers, from research to management to scientific policymaking.

MIT students only eligible to apply.

TONIGHT! Join us for a virtual information session at 7pm EST! Zoom information linked on our website (summerwash.mit.edu).

**MUST have an MIT Touchstone account to join.

Check out our brand new website, where our 2020 intern profiles are proudly displayed!

Deadline for 2021 is December 1st! Only MIT students are eligible for our program.
