Internship Annoucement

The Middle East Institute Leadership Development Program

Internships at the Middle East Institute (MEI) are designed to provide undergraduates who have completed at least one year of school, recent graduates, and graduate students considering a career in a Middle East related field with hands-on experience in a Washington non-profit organization that focuses exclusively on the Middle East. Interns obtain guidance, experience, and exposure to the Washington policy and scholarly community while helping out with the everyday operations of the Middle East Institute.

Positions are available on a full or part-time basis with a minimum of 20 hours a week. Although there is no financial compensation for interns, MEI does offer each intern one free language class, a one-year electronic subscription to The Middle East Journal, and reimbursement for local travel expenses.
Application Deadline (Summer 2012 term): March 5

Available internships: Center for Turkish Studies, Development, Languages, Programs and Communications, Publications, Sultan Qaboos Cultural Center, Research Visualization and Design, and Research Assistantships.

Application materials: cover letter, résumé, college transcript (official or unofficial), five-page writing sample, and a letter of recommendation in pdf format. (*For Research and Visualization internships, please submit either (1) a link to your portfolio or (2) a sample research project instead of a writing sample.)

Send applications and questions to: rwilson@mei.edu.
