About Cornell in Washington:

In the Cornell in Washington (CIW) Summer Term, you’ll work full-time at an internship in D.C., take a Cornell course for credit, and have signature D.C. experiences.  

D.C. is arguably the best place in the world to have a summer internship; there are abundant opportunities for any interest.  Following are examples of where CIW students with specific interests had their internships:

• Government: Executive Branch, Congress, and a wide range of government agencies.
• Law: Supreme Court, the Department of Justice, D.C. Public Defender’s Office
• Economics: President’s Council of Economic Advisors, the Congressional Budget Office, Treasury Department, World Bank
• Social justice: ACLU, Amnesty International, Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division
• Health/medicine: American Public Health Association, Centers for Disease Control, National Institutes of Health, Red Cross
• Environment: Environmental Protection Agency, Audubon Society, National Wildlife Federation, National Park Service
• International Affairs: State Department, Peace Corps, Council on Foreign Relations
• Media/communications: CNN, C-SPAN, NBC, Fox News, NPR, Voice of America, New York Times, Washington Post
• Arts: National Endowment for the Arts, National Portrait Gallery, Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts, Phillips Collection, Corcoran Gallery

In addition to your internship, you’ll take a Cornell course for credit at night. Course offerings vary year-to-year.

On the weekends, CIW offers signature DC experiences, such as visiting Smithsonian museums, catching a Nationals baseball game, and attending a performance at the Kennedy Center.

Students live in comfortable apartments (each with its own full kitchen and private bathroom), and take their class, in the Cornell owned-and-operated Wolpe Center, in the lovely and centrally-located neighborhood of Dupont Circle.

Make the most of your summer by spending it with Cornell in Washington!
