The
Office of Economic Policy, U.S. Treasury Department is currently looking for
college students interested in Economics, Finance, or Public Policy for our Summer 2018 internship session. Our program
runs year round with three sessions:
January through May, May through August, and September through
December. Our program is about
substance. Interns are generally assigned a long-term research project as
well as smaller projects. They are also expected to attend Congressional
Hearings and think tank lectures and presentations and summarize these events
for the Assistant Secretary and other senior level economists. Candidates
should have strong writing skills, be able to work independently, be well
organized and highly motivated. Interns are expected to work between 30
and 40 hours a week. There is some flexibility in the work hours if you
are taking classes while in D.C. Our intern positions are unpaid. Under
some circumstances, we do provide a subway subsidy to help defray commuting
expenses.
If you
are interested in applying, submit your resume (with your GPA included), a copy
of your transcript (unofficial will suffice), two writing samples and three
references (names and contact information) to Christine.Devlin@treasury.gov. Applications are
due March 1, 2018.
U.S. citizenship required. All candidates must be currently enrolled as a full
time student in a college or university. For further information, please
contact Christine Devlin, Office of Economic Policy, U.S. Treasury Department,
