Summer Student Development Fund

The Summer Student Development Fund awards funds to undergraduate and graduate students who secure unpaid summer internships in the fields of national security and foreign policy. Applications for Summer 2016 are due Monday, April 25th. Awards will be granted to those students whose summer work best reflects the mission and goals of the Clements Center. Past recipients have interned with the US Department of State, the Center for Strategic and International Studies, the McCain Institute for International Leadership, the Project on Middle East Democracy, and the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs. Please go to our website for more information. Because internships in foreign and defense policy can be an essential part of professional development and career opportunities in national security policy, the Clements Center wants to help UT students in identifying and pursuing internship opportunities. We have created an Internship Database containing information on a broad range of internships in foreign policy, human rights, international development, international economics, and intelligence/security. This is an excellent resource for students that can be found on our website.
