AIC Internship Program

Opportunity: AIC offers fall, spring, and summer internship opportunities for high school, graduate, and undergraduate students. Interns assist in a broad range of activities including: research, editing, web design, media relations, public outreach, civil rights activism, and program development.

Requirements: Interns typically work on tasks with limited direct supervision. Therefore, applicants should possess strong communication skills, be organized, and have initiative. Interns need to be available a minimum of 10 hours per week. The more time interns can offer, the more substantial their responsibilities.

Elligibility: Internships are unpaid (though we do consider support for students with federal "work-study" allocations). International students are welcome to apply, but will need to a valid visa. Americans and others studying abroad in Egypt can apply to intern with our Cairo office.
