Many Duke Global Policy (DGP) Program in Geneva participants also seek an internship in Europe in addition to attending the course week.
If interested, Geneva participants are responsible for securing their own internships, but the program has a strong reputation and can provide information about where students have interned in previous years.
Sanford MPP/MIDP students interested in completing internships in Geneva or Europe should work with the Sanford Career Services team.
Other student participants will need to work with their own career support offices for direct help on securing an internship in Geneva.
Note: Sanford students will need to request a week off from their internship in June to attend the Program. Internship supervisors are generally attracted to applicants who are available for longer periods (3 months), but shorter internships are acceptable in certain instances.
